Abstract
English
We give a combinatorial proof of Goulden and Jackson's formula for the number of minimal transitive factorizations of a permutation when the permutation has two cycles. We use the recent result of Goulden, Nica, and Oancea on the number of maximal chains of annular noncrossing partitions of type B.

Nous utilisons le rèsultat rècent de Goulden, Nica, et Oancea sur le nombre de chaî nes maximales des partitions non-croisèes annulaires de type B.
