Graph-encoded map
text:
In topological graph theory, a graph-encoded map or gem is a method of encoding a cellular embedding of a graph using a different graph with four vertices per edge of the original graph. It is the topological analogue of runcination, a geometric operation on polyhedra. Graph-encoded maps were formulated and named by Lins (1982).
Alternative and equivalent systems for representing cellular embeddings include signed rotation systems and ribbon graphs. The graph-encoded map for an embedded graph G
