Enumerating Regular Objects associated with Suzuki Groups

We use the M\"obius function of the simple Suzuki group Sz(q) to enumerate regular objects such as maps, hypermaps, dessins d'enfants and surface coverings with automorphism groups isomorphic to Sz(q).Comment: 20 page

Regular dessins with a given automorphism group

Dessins d'enfants are combinatorial structures on compact Riemann surfaces defined over algebraic number fields, and regular dessins are the most symmetric of them. If G is a finite group, there are only finitely many regular dessins with automorphism group G. It is shown how to enumerate them, how to represent them all as quotients of a single regular dessin U(G), and how certain hypermap operations act on them. For example, if G is a cyclic group of order n then U(G) is a map on the Fermat curve of degree n and genus (n-1)(n-2)/2. On the other hand, if G=A_5 then U(G) has genus 274218830047232000000000000000001. For other non-abelian finite simple groups, the genus is much larger.Comment: 19 page
