A type of rooted map called $(p,q,n)$-dipole, whose numbers on surfaces have some applications in string theory, are defined and the numbers of $(p,q,n)$-dipoles on orientable surfaces of genus 1 and 2 are given by Visentin and Wieler (The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics 14 (2007),#R12). In this paper, we study the classification of $(p,q,n)$-dipoles on nonorientable surfaces and obtain the numbers of $(p,q,n)$-dipoles on the projective plane and Klein bottle.

It is the purpose of this paper to show that many of the enumerative techniques available for counting rooted plane trees may be extended to tree-rooted maps, that is, rooted maps in which a spanning tree is distinguished as root tree. For example, tree-rooted maps are enumerated by partition, and the average number of trees in a rooted map with n edges is determined. An enumerative similarity between Hamiltonian rooted maps (that is, rooted maps with a distinguished Hamiltonian polygon) and tree-rooted maps is discussed. A 1-1 correspondence is established between treerooted maps with n edges and Hamiltonian rooted trivalent maps with 2n + 1 vertices in which the root vertex is exceptional, being divalent, both of which are in 1-1 correspondence with non-separable Hamiltonian-rooted triangularized digons with n internal vertices, where both the latter are as defined in (2).

In this paper we deal with trivalent planar maps in which the boundary of each country (or “face“) is a simple closed curve. One vertex is distinguished as the root and its three incident edges are distinguished as the first, second, and third major edges. We determine the average number of Hamiltonian polygons, passing through the first and second major edges, in such a “rooted map” of 2n vertices. Next we consider the corresponding problem for 3-connected rooted maps. In this case we obtain a functional equation from which the average can be computed for small values of n.
