Parameterized Algorithms for Upward Planarity
Steven Chaplick, Emilio Di Giacomo, Fabrizio Frati +3
We obtain new parameterized algorithms for the classical problem of determining whether a directed acyclic graph admits an upward planar drawing. Our results include a new fixed-pa…
Planar Straight-line Realizations of 2-Trees with Prescribed Edge Lengths
Carlos Alegría, Manuel Borrazzo, Giordano Da Lozzo +3
We study a classic problem introduced thirty years ago by Eades and Wormald. Let be a weighted planar graph, where is a length function.…
2-Level Quasi-Planarity or How Caterpillars Climb (SPQR-)Trees
Patrizio Angelini, Giordano Da Lozzo, Giuseppe Di Battista +2
Given a bipartite graph , the -Level Quasi-Planarity problem asks for the existence of a drawing of in the plane such that the vertices in and in …
Schematic Representation of Large Biconnected Graphs
Giuseppe Di Battista, Fabrizio Frati, Maurizio Patrignani +1
Suppose that a biconnected graph is given, consisting of a large component plus several other smaller components, each separated from the main component by a separation pair. We in…
Universal Geometric Graphs
Fabrizio Frati, Michael Hoffmann, Csaba D. Tóth
We introduce and study the problem of constructing geometric graphs that have few vertices and edges and that are universal for planar graphs or for some sub-class of planar graphs…
Planar Rectilinear Drawings of Outerplanar Graphs in Linear Time
Fabrizio Frati
We show how to test in linear time whether an outerplanar graph admits a planar rectilinear drawing, both if the graph has a prescribed plane embedding that the drawing has to resp…
