Abstract

Semi-equivelar maps are generalizations of maps on the surfaces of Archimedean solids to surfaces other than the 2-sphere. The well known 11 types of normal tilings of the plane suggest the possible types of semi-equivelar maps on the torus and the Klein bottle. In this article we classify (up to isomorphism) semi-equivelar maps on the torus and the Klein bottle with few vertices.
