Abstract

It is shown that for every g\geq 3, there exists a combinatorially regular map M of type (3, 7) on a closed orientable surface of genus g, such that M has trivial symmetry group. Such maps are constructed from Schreier coset graphs corresponding to permutation representations of the (2, 3, 7) triangle group.
