Abstract: In this report, we will give a classification of all regular maps \(\mathcal{M}\) on nonorientable surfaces with Euler characteristic \(−p^3\) for some prime \(p ≥ 5\). Explicitly, it is proved that either \(\mathcal{M}\) has type \(\{4, m\}\) and Aut\((\mathcal{M}) \cong (\mathbb{Z}_2 × \mathbb{Z}_2) ⋊ \mathbb{D}_{2m}\), where \(m \equiv 3 \pmod{6}\) and \(m−4 = p^3\); or \(\mathcal{M}\) has type \(\{2m, 2n\}\) and Aut\((\mathcal{M}) \cong \mathbb{D}_{2m} × \mathbb{D}_{2n}\), where \(1 < m < n \), \(2 ∤ m\), \( \gcd(m, n) = 1\) and \(mn − m − n = p^3\). In particular, there exists no such map provided \(p ≡ 1\pmod{12}\). Based on the currently available results, we also propose two questions for further research. This is a joint work with Yao Tian.
