Regular Maps in the Torus, with Triangular Faces

Schläfli symbol {3,6}(a,b)

The regular maps with six triangles meeting at each vertex are the duals of those with three hexagons. As for {6,3}(a,b), a and b must be either both odd or both even. The number of faces of these polyhedra is given by (a2+3*b2)/2.

The notation used here {3,6}(a,b) is not consistent with that used in ARM, and is as described above for {6,3}(a,b). Thus our {6,3}(a,b) is the dual of our {3,6}(a,b).

ARM also disallows (in our notation) {3,6}(1,1), in which each of the two triangles shares each of its vertices (but no edge) with itself.
