In this paper, the lower bounds of maximum genera of simplicial graphs under the constraints of girth and connectivity are discussed extensively. A complete picture on the lower bounds of maximum genera of graphs is formed. There are infinitely many graphs with the maximum genera attaining these low

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, a lower bound on the maximum genus of a graph in terms of its girth is established as follows: let G be a simple graph with minimum degree at least three, and let g be the girth of G. Then ?M(G)~> ~fl(G) + 1 except for G=K4, g-1 where ]~(G) denotes the cycle rank of G and K4 is the complete graph with four vertices.

Let T be a spanning tree of a connected graph G. Denote by (G; T ) the number of components in G\E(T ) with odd number of edges. The value minT (G; T ) is known as the Betti deΓΏciency of G, denoted by (G), where the minimum is taken over all spanning trees T of G. It is known (N.H. Xuong, J. Combin.
The maximum genus of all vertex-transitive graphs is computed. It is proved that a k-valent vertex-transitive graph of girth g is upper-embeddable whenever k 3 4 or g 2 4. Non-upper-embeddable vertex-transitive graphs are characterized. A particular attention is paid to Cayley graphs. Groups for wh
