Abstract
We are interested in the distribution of the number of faces across all the cell embeddings of a graph, which is equivalent to the distribution of genus by Euler’s formula. In order to study this distribution, we consider the local distribution of faces at a single vertex. We show an asymptotic uniformity on this local face distribution which holds for any graph with large vertex degrees.
We use this to study the usual face distribution of the complete graph. We show that in this case, the local face distribution determines the face distribution for almost all of the whole graph. We use this result to show that a portion of the complete graph of size has the same face distribution as the set of all permutations, up to parity. Along the way, we prove new character bounds and an asymptotic uniformity on conjugacy class products.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Combinatorics is a high standard, international, bimonthly journal of pure mathematics, specializing in theories arising from combinatorial problems. The journal is primarily open to papers dealing with mathematical structures within combinatorics and/or establishing direct links between combinatorics and other branches of mathematics and the theories of computing. The journal includes full-length research papers on important topics.
