The weighted \emph{Sitting Closer to Friends than Enemies} (SCFE) problem is to find an injection of the vertex set of a given weighted graph into a given metric space so that, for every pair of incident edges with different weight, the end…
A metric space $\mathcal{T}$ is a \emph{real tree} if for any pair of points $x, y \in \mathcal{T}$ all topological embeddings $\sigma$ of the segment $[0,1]$ into $\mathcal{T}$, such that $\sigma (0)=x$ and $\sigma (1)=y$, have the same…
Signed graphs, i.e., undirected graphs with edges labelled with a plus or minus sign, are commonly used to model relationships in social networks. Recently, Kermarrec and Thraves initiated the study of the problem of appropriately…
Signed graphs are graphs with signed edges. They are commonly used to represent positive and negative relationships in social networks. While balance theory and clusterizable graphs deal with signed graphs to represent social interactions,…
In this work we investigate the complexity of some problems related to the {\em Simultaneous Embedding with Fixed Edges} (SEFE) of $k$ planar graphs and the PARTITIONED $k$-PAGE BOOK EMBEDDING (PBE-$k$) problems, which are known to be…
We introduce a spectral embedding algorithm for finding proximal relationships between nodes in signed graphs, where edges can take either positive or negative weights. Adopting a physical perspective, we construct a Hamiltonian which is…
In order to study real-world systems, many applied works model them through signed graphs, i.e. graphs whose edges are labeled as either positive or negative. Such a graph is considered as structurally balanced when it can be partitioned…
Simultaneous Embedding with Fixed Edges (SEFE) is a problem where given $k$ planar graphs we ask whether they can be simultaneously embedded so that the embedding of each graph is planar and common edges are drawn the same. Problems of SEFE…
In this paper we deepen the understanding of the connection between two long-standing Graph Drawing open problems, that is, Simultaneous Embedding with Fixed Edges (SEFE) and Clustered Planarity (C-PLANARITY). In his GD'12 paper Marcus…
Given a collection of planar graphs $G_1,\dots,G_k$ on the same set $V$ of $n$ vertices, the simultaneous geometric embedding (with mapping) problem, or simply $k$-SGE, is to find a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane and a bijection $\phi:…
The problem Simultaneous Embedding with Fixed Edges (SEFE) asks for two planar graph $G^1 = (V^1, E^1)$ and $G^2 = (V^2, E^2)$ sharing a common subgraph $G = G^1 \cap G^2$ whether they admit planar drawings such that the common graph is…
Simultaneous Geometric Embedding (SGE) asks whether, for a given collection of graphs on the same vertex set V, there is an embedding of V in the plane that admits a crossing-free drawing with straightline edges for each of the given…
The MEG (minimum equivalent graph) problem is, given a directed graph, to find a small subset of the edges that maintains all reachability relations between nodes. The problem is NP-hard. This paper gives a proof that, for graphs where each…
The \emph{Sandwich Problem} (SP) for a graph class $\calC$ is the following computational problem. The input is a pair of graphs $(V,E_1)$ and $(V,E_2)$ where $E_1\subseteq E_2$, and the task is to decide whether there is an edge set $E$…
A simultaneous embedding (with fixed edges) of two graphs $G^1$ and $G^2$ with common graph $G=G^1 \cap G^2$ is a pair of planar drawings of $G^1$ and $G^2$ that coincide on $G$. It is an open question whether there is a polynomial-time…
We study the complexity of two problems in simultaneous graph drawing. The first problem, GRacSim Drawing, asks for finding a simultaneous geometric embedding of two graphs such that only crossings at right angles are allowed. The second…
Given a planar straight-line graph $G=(V,E)$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$, a \emph{circumscribing polygon} of $G$ is a simple polygon $P$ whose vertex set is $V$, and every edge in $E$ is either an edge or an internal diagonal of $P$. A circumscribing…
Signed graphs are an emergent way of representing data in a variety of contexts where antagonistic interactions exist. These include data from biological, ecological, and social systems. Here we propose the concept of communicability for…
We examine the conditions under which a signed graph contains an edge or a vertex that is contained in a unique negative circle or a unique positive circle. For an edge in a unique signed circle, the positive and negative case require the…
The Seat Arrangement Problem is a problem of finding a desirable seat arrangement for given preferences of agents and a seat graph that represents a configuration of seats. In this paper, we consider decision problems of determining if an…
