Asymptotic normality of pattern counts in random maps II

Eva-Maria Hainzl

Abstract

In a recent work, a central limit theorem for pattern counts in random planar maps was proven by reducing the problem to a face count problem. We provide a shorter proof by circumventing this reduction through the computation of bivariate coefficient asymptotics from a functional equation with one catalytic variable and extend the result to pattern counts with arbitrary boundary and new map classes.

Key Result

Theorem 1

Let $\textbf{p}$ be a planar map and $X_n$ the number of pattern occurrences of $\textbf{p}$ in a random planar map of size $n$. Then, where $\mu_n = c_1n$ and $\sigma_n = c_2\sqrt{n}$ for some computable constants $c_1,c_2 \geq 0$ as $n\rightarrow \infty$.
