Povzetek.
First part of the talk will be dedicated to A. Altschuler's
paper entitled 'Construction and enumeration of regular maps
on the torus'. A short review of Altschuler's algorithm for
counting toroidal regular maps of type {3,6} will be
presented.
Since toroidal regular maps of type {3,6} and toroidal
regular maps of type {6,3} (or toriodal polyhexes - TPHs)
are duals, second part of the talk will deal with the algorithm
for enumeration of TPHs given by authors Kirby, Mallion and
Pollak, and slightly modified by T. Pisanski.
The talk will end up with presenting a closed formula which
answers to our question and depends only on the number of
hexagons in the map.
