โฆ Synopsis
Bijections are obtained between nonseparable planar maps and two different kinds of trees: description trees and skew ternary trees. A combinatorial relation between the latter and ternary trees allows bijective enumeration and random generation of nonseparable planar maps. The involved bijections take account of the usual combinatorial parameters and give a bijective proof of formulae established by Brown and Tutte. These results, combined with a bijection due to Goulden and West, give a purely combinatorial enumeration of two-stack-sortable permutations.

An encoding of the set of two-stack-sortable permutations (TSS) in terms of lattice paths and ordered lists of strings is obtained. These lattice paths are called Raney paths. The encoding yields combinatorial decompositions for two complementary subsets of TSS, which are the analogues of previously
We derive a simple formula for the number of rooted loopless planar maps with a given number of edges and a given valency of the root vertex.
