Abstract

In this article, the authors discuss two kinds of new planar maps: pan-fan maps and circuit boundary maps, and provide explicit expressions about their enumerating functions with different parameters. Meanwhile, two explicit counting formulas for circuit cubic boundary maps with two parameters: the size and the valency of the root-face, are also extracted.
