A bijective skinning procedure yields the topological recursion for maps of arbitrary topology at the level of formal generating series, with no analyticity assumptions, including stuffed maps and a combinatorial recursion kernel.

abstract
These are lecture notes for a 4h mini-course held in Toulouse, May 9-12th, at the thematic school on "Quantum topology and geometry". The goal of these lectures is to (a) explain some incarnations, in the last ten years, of the idea of topological recursion: in two dimensional quantum field theories, in cohomological field theories, in the computation of Weil-Petersson volumes of the moduli space of curves; (b) relate them more specifically to Eynard-Orantin topological recursion (revisited from Kontsevich-Soibelman point of view based on quantum Airy structures).

A bijective topological recursion for maps
A bijective skinning procedure yields the topological recursion for maps of arbitrary topology at the level of formal generating series, with no analyticity assumptions, including stuffed maps and a combinatorial recursion kernel.
