Abstract:

Calculating the genus distributions of double-path graphs is a concerned topic in topological graph theory. In this paper, by using transfer matrix method and a vectorized production matrix, the calculation formulas for the genus distributions of two types of graphs formed by double-path connect in series are derived.

Key words: genus distribution, transfer matrix, vectorized production matrix, genus polynomials
