## Abstract The vertices of each plane triangulation without loops and multiple edges may be colored with 11 colors so that for every two adjacent triangles [__xyz__] and [__wxy__], the vertices __x__,__y__,__w__,__z__ are colored pairwise differently.

โฆ Synopsis
In the diagonal coloring of triangulations, not only adjacent vertices are colored differently but also any vertices z, w if there exist faces [xyz] and [WY]. An upper bound for the minimal number of colors needed to diagonally color any triangulation of a surface with
Euler characteristic N is given which is asymptotically fi times better than that due to Bouchet, Fouquet, Jolivet, and Riviere. This is conjectured to be the best possible for all surfaces except for the plane.

We use the generating function approach to enumerate two families of rooted planar near-triangulations (2-connected, and 2-connected with no multiple edges) with respect to the number of flippable edges.

Consider a class P of triangulations on a closed surface F 2 , closed under vertex splitting. We shall show that any two triangulations with the same and sufficiently large number of vertices which belong to P can be transformed into each other, up to homeomorphism, by a finite sequence of diagonal
