We initiate the study of Simultaneous Graph Embedding with Fixed Edges in the beyond planarity framework. In the QuaSEFE problem, we allow edge crossings, as long as each graph individually is drawn quasiplanar, that is, no three edges…
An identifying code $C$ of a graph $G$ is a dominating set of $G$ such that any two distinct vertices of $G$ have distinct closed neighbourhoods within $C$. These codes have been widely studied for over two decades. We give an improvement…
A {\it vertex-ordered} graph is a graph equipped with a linear ordering of its vertices. A pair of independent edges in an ordered graph can exhibit one of the following three patterns: separated, nested or crossing. We say a pair of…
The independent domination number of a finite graph G is the minimum cardinality of an independent dominating set of vertices. The independent bondage number of G is the minimum cardinality of a set of edges whose deletion results in a…
A graph is called a $k$-planar unit distance graph if it can be drawn in the plane such that every edge is a unit line segment and is involved in at most $k$ crossings. We investigate $u_k(n)$, the maximum number of edges of such graphs on…
Planar locally finite graphs which are almost vertex transitive are discussed. If the graph is 3-connected and has at most one end then the group of automorphisms is a planar discontinuous group and its structure is well-known. A general…
We study the maximal number of triangulations that a planar set of $n$ points can have, and show that it is at most $30^n$. This new bound is achieved by a careful optimization of the charging scheme of Sharir and Welzl (2006), which has…
A hypergraph $H$ is said to be \emph{linear} if every pair of vertices lies in at most one hyperedge. Given a family $\mathcal{F}$ of $r$-uniform hypergraphs (also called $r$-graphs), an $r$-graph $H$ is said to be \emph{$\mathcal{F}$-free}…
We find precise asymptotic estimates for the number of planar maps and graphs with a condition on the minimum degree, and properties of random graphs from these classes. In particular we show that the size of the largest tree attached to…
For $S\subseteq V(G)$ and $|S|\geq 2$, $\lambda(S)$ is the maximum number of edge-disjoint trees connecting $S$ in $G$. For an integer $k$ with $2\leq k\leq n$, the \emph{generalized $k$-edge-connectivity} $\lambda_k(G)$ of $G$ is then…
A graph is k-choosable if it can be colored whenever every vertex has a list of at least k available colors. We prove that if cycles of length at most four in a planar graph G are pairwise far apart, then G is 3-choosable. This is analogous…
A graph on $n \ge 3$ vertices drawn in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most four times has at most $6(n-2)$ edges -- this result proven by Ackerman is outstanding in the literature of beyond-planar graphs with regard to its…
A coloring of a graph G = (V,E) is a partition {V1, V2, . . ., Vk} of V into independent sets or color classes. A vertex v Vi is a Grundy vertex if it is adjacent to at least one vertex in each color class Vj . A coloring is a Grundy…
A hereditary class H of graphs is $\chi$-bounded if there is a $\chi$-binding function f such that for every $G$ in $H$, $\chi(G)$ less than or equal to $f(\omega(G))$. Here we prove that if a graph $G$ is free of 1. {Chair; P$_4$+K$_1$} or…
The linear arboricity la(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of linear forests that partition the edges of G. In 1984, Akiyama et al. stated the Linear Arboricity Conjecture (LAC), that the linear arboricity of any simple graph of maximum…
We show that many graphs with bounded treewidth can be described as subgraphs of the strong product of a graph with smaller treewidth and a bounded-size complete graph. To this end, define the "underlying treewidth" of a graph class…
The treewidth is a structural parameter that measures the tree-likeness of a graph. Many algorithmic and combinatorial results are expressed in terms of the treewidth. In this paper, we study the treewidth of outer $k$-planar graphs, that…
Recently, there has been interest in representing single graphs by multiple drawings; for example, using graph stories, storyplans, or uncrossed collections. In this paper, we apply this idea to orthogonal graph drawing. Due to the…
Let $G$ be a simple graph and $I_3(G)$ be its $3$-path ideal in the corresponding polynomial ring $R$. In this article, we prove that for an arbitrary graph $G$, $reg(R/I_3(G))$ is bounded below by $2\nu_3(G)$, where $\nu_3(G)$ denotes the…
We study 3-plane drawings, that is, drawings of graphs in which every edge has at most three crossings. We show how the recently developed Density Formula for topological drawings of graphs (KKKRSU GD 2024) can be used to count the…
