In the constrained planarity setting, we ask whether a graph admits a planar drawing that additionally satisfies a given set of constraints. These constraints are often derived from very natural problems; prominent examples are Level…

We consider the problem of deciding whether an input graph G admits a topological embedding into a two-dimensional simplicial complex C. This problem includes, among others, the embeddability problem of a graph on a surface and the…

A graph is said to be circular-arc if the vertices can be associated with arcs of a circle so that two vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding arcs overlap. It is proved that the isomorphism of circular-arc graphs can be…

In a book embedding the vertices of a graph are placed on the "spine" of a "book" and the edges are assigned to "pages" so that edges on the same page do not cross. In the Partitioned 2-page Book Embedding problem egdes are partitioned into…

In this paper we settle the computational complexity of two open problems related to the extension of the notion of level planarity to surfaces different from the plane. Namely, we show that the problems of testing the existence of a level…

We consider the embeddability problem of a graph G into a two-dimensional simplicial complex C: Given G and C, decide whether G admits a topological embedding into C. The problem is NP-hard, even in the restricted case where C is…

This article deals with new polynomial time algorithm for graph isomorphism testing.

We study the interplay between embedding constrained planarity and hybrid planarity testing. We consider a constrained planarity testing problem, called 1-Fixed Constrained Planarity, and prove that this problem can be solved in quadratic…

This paper deals with the problem of finding, for a given graph and a given natural number k, a subgraph of k nodes with a maximum number of edges. This problem is known as the k-cluster problem and it is NP-hard on general graphs as well…

We study the problem of recognizing the cluster structure of a graph in the framework of property testing in the bounded degree model. Given a parameter $\varepsilon$, a $d$-bounded degree graph is defined to be $(k, \phi)$-clusterable, if…

The objective of clustering is to discover natural groups in datasets and to identify geometrical structures which might reside there, without assuming any prior knowledge on the characteristics of the data. The problem can be seen as…

Motivated by finding planar embeddings that lead to drawings with favorable aesthetics, we study the problems MINMAXFACE and UNIFORMFACES of embedding a given biconnected multi-graph such that the largest face is as small as possible and…

Analysis of higher-order organizations, usually small connected subgraphs called motifs, is a fundamental task on complex networks. This paper studies a new problem of testing higher-order clusterability: given query access to an undirected…

Traditional representations of graphs and their duals suggest the requirement that the dual vertices be placed inside their corresponding primal faces, and the edges of the dual graph cross only their corresponding primal edges. We consider…

The weak variant of Hanani-Tutte theorem says that a graph is planar, if it can be drawn in the plane so that every pair of edges cross an even number of times. Moreover, we can turn such a drawing into an embedding without changing the…

We study the simultaneous embeddability of a pair of partitions of the same underlying set into disjoint blocks. Each element of the set is mapped to a point in the plane and each block of either of the two partitions is mapped to a region…

In graph property testing the task is to distinguish whether a graph satisfies a given property or is "far" from having that property, preferably with a sublinear query and time complexity. In this work we initiate the study of property…

In this paper we consider graphs whose edges are associated with a degree of {\em importance}, which may depend on the type of connections they represent or on how recently they appeared in the scene, in a streaming setting. The goal is to…

In this paper we study two problems related to the drawing of level graphs, that is, T-LEVEL PLANARITY and CLUSTERED-LEVEL PLANARITY. We show that both problems are NP-complete in the general case and that they become polynomial-time…

We investigate the problem of constructing planar drawings with few bends for two related problems, the partially embedded graph problem---to extend a straight-line planar drawing of a subgraph to a planar drawing of the whole graph---and…
