A d-angulation is a planar map with faces of degree d. We present for each integer d ≥ 3 a bijection between the class of d-angulations of girth d and a class of decorated plane trees. Each of the bijections is obtained by specializing a “master bijection” which extends an earlier construction of the first author. Bijections already existed for triangulations (d = 3) and for quadrangulations (d...
