✦ Synopsis
An undirected graph G is called a comparability graph if there exists an orientation of its edges such that the resulting relation on its vertex set is a partial order P. A comparability graph is UPO (i.e. uniquely partially orderable) if, except for its dual p-x, there is only one such partial order P. In this paper we show that lira,__*** G(rg UPO)IG(n) = 1, where G(n) and G(n, UPO) denote, respectively, the number of comparability graphs and UPO-comparability graphs on n vertices. As a consequence, G(n) is asymptotically equal to half the number of partial orders on n elements.

We analyze a randomized version of the Brelaz heuristic on sparse random graphs. We prove that almost all graphs with average degree dp4:03; i.e., Gðn; p ¼ d=nÞ; are 3-colorable and that a constant fraction of all 4-regular graphs are 3-colorable.
We give a simple proof of the fact that for a wide variety of classes of maps on surfaces, almost all maps in the class are asymmetric. Our method is based on recent results on the appearance of submaps in the classes. 'c. 1995 Academic Press, Inc.
