In this paper, we introduce the following new concept in graph drawing. Our task is to find a small collection of drawings such that they all together satisfy some property that is useful for graph visualization. We propose investigating a…

We introduce a dynamic version of the graph coloring problem and prove its fixed-parameter tractability with respect to the edit-parameter. This is used to present a {\em turbo-charged} heuristic for the problem that works by combining the…

A clique in an undirected graph G= (V, E) is a subset V' V of vertices, each pair of which is connected by an edge in E. The clique problem is an optimization problem of finding a clique of maximum size in graph. The clique problem is…

In extension problems of partial graph drawings one is given an incomplete drawing of an input graph $G$ and is asked to complete the drawing while maintaining certain properties. A prominent area where such problems arise is that of…

A drawing of a graph is {\em pseudolinear} if there is a pseudoline arrangement such that each pseudoline contains exactly one edge of the drawing. The {\em pseudolinear crossing number} of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of pairwise…

A straight-line drawing $\delta$ of a planar graph $G$ need not be plane, but can be made so by \emph{untangling} it, that is, by moving some of the vertices of $G$. Let shift$(G,\delta)$ denote the minimum number of vertices that need to…

A drawing of a graph in the plane is {\it pseudolinear} if the edges of the drawing can be extended to doubly-infinite curves that form an arrangement of pseudolines, that is, any pair of edges crosses precisely once. A special case are…

We describe an efficient method for drawing any n-vertex simple graph G in the hyperbolic plane. Our algorithm produces greedy drawings, which support greedy geometric routing, so that a message M between any pair of vertices may be routed…

In a right-angle crossing (RAC) drawing of a graph, each edge is represented as a polyline and edge crossings must occur at an angle of exactly $90^\circ$, where the number of bends on such polylines is typically restricted in some way.…

Point-set embeddings and large-angle crossings are two areas of graph drawing that independently have received a lot of attention in the past few years. In this paper, we consider problems in the intersection of these two areas. Given the…

A (Euclidean) greedy drawing of a graph is a drawing in which, for any two vertices $s,t$ ($s \neq t$), there is a neighbor vertex of $s$ that is closer to $t$ than to $s$ in the Euclidean distance. Greedy drawings are important in the…

The crossing number ${\mbox {cr}}(G)$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is the smallest number of edge crossings over all drawings of $G$ in the plane. For any $k\ge 1$, the $k$-planar crossing number of $G$, ${\mbox {cr}}_k(G)$, is defined as the…

Visualizing a graph $G$ in the plane nicely, for example, without crossings, is unfortunately not always possible. To address this problem, Masa\v{r}\'ik and Hlin\v{e}n\'y [GD 2023] recently asked for each edge of $G$ to be drawn without…

A dominating set of a graph $\mathcal{G=(V, E)}$ is a subset of vertices $S\subseteq\mathcal{V}$ such that every vertex $v\in \mathcal{V} \setminus S$ outside the dominating set is adjacent to a vertex $u\in S$ within the set. The minimum…

The performance of distributed averaging depends heavily on the underlying topology. In various fields, including compressed sensing, multi-party computation, and abstract graph theory, graphs may be expected to be free of short cycles,…

We present a new algorithm for approximating the number of triangles in a graph $G$ whose edges arrive as an arbitrary order stream. If $m$ is the number of edges in $G$, $T$ the number of triangles, $\Delta_E$ the maximum number of…

Computing the crossing number of a graph is one of the most classical problems in computational geometry. Both it and numerous variations of the problem have been studied, and overcoming their frequent computational difficulty is an active…

Circular layouts are a popular graph drawing style, where vertices are placed on a circle and edges are drawn as straight chords. Crossing minimization in circular layouts is \NP-hard. One way to allow for fewer crossings in practice are…

Drawing graphs with the minimum number of crossings is a classical problem that has been studied extensively. Many restricted versions of the problem have been considered. For example, bipartite graphs can be drawn such that the two sets in…
