Abstract

We derive the asymptotic expression for the number of labeled 2-connected planar graphs with respect to vertices and edges. We also show that almost all such graphs with $n$ vertices contain many copies of any fixed planar graph, and this implies that almost all such graphs have large automorphism groups.
