It is well-known that every vertex-transitive graph admits a representation as a coset graph. In this paper, we extend this construction by introducing monodromy graphs defined through double cosets. Our main result establishes that every…

We characterise $t$-perfect plane triangulations by forbidden induced subgraphs. As a consequence, we obtain that a plane triangulation is $h$-perfect if and only if it is perfect.

Median graphs are connected graphs in which for all three vertices there is a unique vertex that belongs to shortest paths between each pair of these three vertices. In this paper we provide several novel characterizations of planar median…

We prove that the cycle space of every planar finitely separable 3-connected graph $G$ is generated by some ${\rm Aut}(G)$-invariant nested set of cycles. We also discuss the situation in the case of smaller connectivity.

We present some results on the structure of line graphs of triangle-free graphs and a homogenization of the line graph of the universal homogeneous triangle-free graph in a finite relational language with arity 4. This result is relevant to…

A monotone drawing of a planar graph $G$ is a planar straight-line drawing of $G$ where a monotone path exists between every pair of vertices of $G$ in some direction. Recently monotone drawings of planar graphs have been proposed as a new…

We study the space of all triples of projective lines in $\mathbb{RP}^n$ such that any line in a triple intersects the two others at distinct points. We show that for $n=2$ and $3$ these spaces are homotopically equivalent to the real…

Tutte proved that 4-connected planar graphs are Hamiltonian. It is unknown if there is an analogous result on 1-planar graphs. In this paper, we characterize 4-connected 1-planar chordal graphs, and show that all such graphs are…

Given finitely many connected polygonal obstacles $O_1,\dots,O_k$ in the plane and a set $P$ of points in general position and not in any obstacle, the {\em visibility graph} of $P$ with obstacles $O_1,\dots,O_k$ is the (geometric) graph…

Every graph $\Gamma$ can be embedded in the plane with a minimal number of edge intersections, called its classical crossing number $\text{cross}\left(\Gamma\right)$. In this paper, we prove that if $\Gamma$ is a metric graph it can be…

It implicitly follows from the work of [Colbourn, El-Mallah: On two dual classes of planar graphs. Discrete Mathematics 80(1): 21-40 (1990)] that every planar partial 3-tree is a subgraph of a planar 3-tree. This fact has already enabled to…

A multigraph is exactly k-edge-connected if there are exactly k edge-disjoint paths between any pair of vertices. We characterize the class of exactly 3-edge-connected graphs, giving a synthesis involving two operations by which every…
