A 2-cell embedding of a graph G in an orientable surface of genus k is an embedding in which each face is homeomorphic to an open disk. The distribution of genus across all 2-cell embeddings of G is called the genus distribution of G. In this talk...

Given a graph G, its genus distribution is the sequence whose k-th term is the number of 2-cell embeddings of G in the orientable surface of genus k. The Log-Concavity Genus Distribution (LCGD) Conjecture states that the genus distribution of every...
