In this article, we use a unified approach to prove several classes of planar graphs are DP-$3$-colorable, which extend the corresponding results on $3$-choosability.
Deciding whether a planar graph (even of maximum degree $4$) is $3$-colorable is NP-complete. Determining subclasses of planar graphs being $3$-colorable has a long history, but since Gr\"{o}tzsch's result that triangle-free planar graphs…
It is well-known that every $n$-vertex planar graph with minimum degree 3 has a matching of size at least $\frac{n}{3}$. But all proofs of this use the Tutte-Berge-formula for the size of a maximum matching. Hence these proofs are not…
We show that every bipartite planar graph with minimum degree at least 3 has proper orientation number at most 3.
We show that the isomorphism of 3-connected planar graphs can be decided in deterministic log-space. This improves the previously known bound UL$\cap$coUL of Thierauf and Wagner.
It is well-known that in finite graphs, large complete minors/topological minors can be forced by assuming a large average degree. Our aim is to extend this fact to infinite graphs. For this, we generalise the notion of the relative end…
The degree diameter problem asks for the maximum possible number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ and diameter $D$. In this paper, we focus on planar graphs of diameter $3$. Fellows, Hell and Seyffarth (1995) proved that…
We establish a one-to-one correspondence between 1-planar graphs and general and hole-free 4-map graphs and show that 1-planar graphs can be recognized in polynomial time if they are crossing-augmented, fully triangulated, and maximal…
We prove that every graph of minimum degree at least $d \ge 1$ contains a subdivision of some maximal 3-degenerate graph of order $d+1$. This generalizes the classic results of Dirac ($d=3$) and Pelik\'an ($d=4$). We conjecture that for any…
We produce a new, shorter construction of a minor-universal planar graph.
Baker devised a powerful technique to obtain approximation schemes for various problems restricted to planar graphs. Her technique can be directly extended to various other graph classes, among the most general ones the graphs avoiding a…
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 prove a complexity dichotomy theorem for counting planar graph homomorphisms of domain size 3. Given any 3 by 3 real valued symmetric matrix $H$ defining a graph homomorphism from all planar graphs $G \mapsto Z_H(G)$, we completely…
We introduce and study the problem of optimizing arbitrary functions over degree sequences of hypergraphs and multihypergraphs. We show that over multihypergraphs the problem can be solved in polynomial time. For hypergraphs, we show that…
In a recent breakthrough, Babai (STOC 2016) gave a quasipolynomial time graph isomorphism test. In this work, we give an improved isomorphism test for graphs of small degree: our algorithms runs in time $n^{O((\log d)^{c})}$, where $n$ is…
Graph isomorphism is an important computer science problem. The problem for the general case is unknown to be in polynomial time. The base algorithm for the general case works in quasi-polynomial time. The solutions in polynomial time for…
A (possibly denerate) drawing of a graph $G$ in the plane is approximable by an embedding if it can be turned into an embedding by an arbitrarily small perturbation. We show that testing, whether a straight-line drawing of a planar graph…
The moduli space of degree $d$ morphisms on $\mathbb{P}^1$ has received much study. McMullen showed that, except for certain families of Latt\`es maps, there is a finite-to-one correspondence (over $\mathbb{C}$) between classes of morphisms…
Let $n\geq 3$ and $r_n$ be a $3$-polytopal graph such that for every $3\leq i\leq n$, $r_n$ has at least one vertex of degree $i$. We find the minimal vertex count for $r_n$. We then describe an algorithm to construct the graphs $r_n$. A…
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…
