Regular embeddings of cycles with multiple edges revisited

Regularne vložitve ciklov z večkratnimi povezavami se pojavljajo v literaturi že kar nekaj časa, tako v topološki teoriji grafov kot tudi izven nje. Ta članek izriše kompletno podobo teh zemljevidov na ta način, da povsem opiše, klasificira in enumerira regularne vložitve ciklov z večkratnimi povezavami tako na orientabilnih kot tudi na neorientabilnih ploskvah. Večina rezultatov je sicer znana v tej ali oni obliki, toda tu so predstavljeni iz poenotenega zornega kota, osnovanega na teoriji končnih grup. Naš pristop daje dodatno informacijo tako o zemljevidih kot o njihovih grupah avtomorfizmov, priskrbi pa tudi dodaten vpogled v njihove odnose.Regular embeddings of cycles with multiple edges have been reappearing in the literature for quite some time, both in and outside topological graph theory. The present paper aims to draw a complete picture of these maps by providing a detailed description, classification, and enumeration of regular embeddings of cycles with multiple edges on both orientable and non-orientable surfaces. Most of the results have been known in one form or another, but here they are presented from a unique viewpoint based on finite group theory. Our approach brings additional information about both the maps and their automorphism groups, and also gives extra insight into their relationships

Orientably-Regular π\pi-Maps and Regular π\pi-Maps

Given a map with underlying graph $\mathcal{G}$, if the set of prime divisors of $|V(\mathcal{G}|$ is denoted by $\pi$, then we call the map a {\it $\pi$-map}. An orientably-regular (resp. A regular ) $\pi$-map is called {\it solvable} if the group $G^+$ of all orientation-preserving automorphisms (resp. the group $G$ of automorphisms) is solvable; and called {\it normal} if $G^+$ (resp. $G$) contains a normal $\pi$-Hall subgroup. In this paper, it will be proved that orientably-regular $\pi$-maps are solvable and normal if $2\notin \pi$ and regular $\pi$-maps are solvable if $2\notin \pi$ and $G$ has no sections isomorphic to ${\rm PSL}(2,q)$ for some prime power $q$. In particular, it's shown that a regular $\pi$-map with $2\notin \pi$ is normal if and only if $G/O_{2^{'}}(G)$ is isomorphic to a Sylow $2$-group of $G$. Moreover, nonnormal $\pi$-maps will be characterized and some properties and constructions of normal $\pi$-maps will be given in respective sections.Comment: 18 pages. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2201.0430
