In particular, it is called equivelar if the face-cycles contain same type of faces. A map is semiregular (or almost regular) if it has as few flag orbits as possible for its type. A map is $k$-regular if it is equivelar and the number of flag orbits of the map $k$ under the automorphism group. In particular, if $k =1$, its called regular. A map is $k$-semiregular if it contains more number of flags as compared to its type with the number of flags orbits $k$. Drach et al. \\cite{drach:2019} have proved that every semi-equivelar toroidal map has a finite unique minimal semiregular cover. In this article, we show the bounds of flag orbits of semi-equivelar toroidal maps, i.e., there exists $k$ for each type such that every semi-equivelar map is $\\ell$-uniform for some $\\ell \\le k$. We show that none of the Archimedean types on the torus is semiregular, i.e., for each type, there exists a map whose number of flag orbits is more than its type. We also prove that if a semi-equivelar map is $m$-semiregular then it has a finite index $t$-semiregular minimal cover for $t \\le m$. We also show the existence and classification of $n$ sheeted $k$-semiregular maps for some $k$ of semi-equivelar toroidal maps for each $n \\in \\mathbb{N}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2021-12-20T11:44:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "52C20", "52B70", "51M20", "57M60" ], "keywords": [ "semi-equivelar toroidal map", "k-semiregular covers", "flag orbits", "finite unique minimal semiregular cover", "semi-equivelar map" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
