Approximation Algorithms for the Maximum Induced Planar and Outerplanar Subgraph Problems

open access: yesJournal of Graph Algorithms and Applications, 2007
The task of finding the largest subset of vertices of a graph that induces a planar subgraph is known as the Maximum Induced Planar Subgraph problem (MIPS). In this paper, some new approximation algorithms for MIPS are introduced.

The Minimal Nonplanar Strong Digraphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kuratowski's theorem says that the minimal (under subgraph containment) graphs that are not planar are the subdivisions of K 5 ${K}_{5}$ and of K 3 , 3 ${K}_{3,3}$. Here we study the minimal (under subdigraph containment) strongly‐connected digraphs that are not planar.

Straight-Line Drawings on Restricted Integer Grids in Two and Three Dimensions

open access: yesJournal of Graph Algorithms and Applications, 2003
This paper investigates the following question: Given a grid ϕ, where ϕ is a proper subset of the integer 2D or 3D grid, which graphs admit straight-line crossing-free drawings with vertices located at (integral) grid points of ϕ?

Double domination in maximal outerplanar graphs

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2022
In graph GG, a vertex dominates itself and its neighbors. A subset S⊆V(G)S\subseteq V\left(G) is said to be a double-dominating set of GG if SS dominates every vertex of GG at least twice.

On the Threshold for Triangulations Inside Convex Polygons

open access: yesRandom Structures &Algorithms, Volume 69, Issue 2, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Start with a large convex polygon and add all other edges inside independently with probability p$$ p $$. At what critical threshold pc$$ {p}_c $$ do triangulations of the polygon begin to appear? The first author and Gravner asked this question and observed that pc=Θ(1)$$ {p}_c=\Theta (1) $$, using the relationship with the Catalan numbers ...

The subgraph isomorphism problem for outerplanar graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
This paper deals with the subgraph isomorphism problem for outerplanar graphs (SUBOUTISOM). In general, since trees and forests are outerplanar, SUBOUTISOM is NP-complete.

Toric ideals of matching polytopes and edge colorings

open access: yesMathematika, Volume 72, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract In this paper, we investigate the maximal degree of minimal generators of the toric ideal of the matching polytope of a graph. It is known that the toric ideal associated with a bipartite graph is generated by binomials of degree at most 3.

On an interpolation property of outerplanar graphs

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2006
Let \(D\) be an acyclic orientation of a graph \(G\). An arc of \(D\) is dependent if a directed cycle is created when it is reversed. Denote by \(d(D)\) the number of dependent arcs in \(D\). Let \(d_{\min}(G)\) be the minimum \(d(D)\), and \(d_{\max}(G)\) the maximum \(d(D)\), over all acyclic orientations \(D\) of \(G\).

L(2, 1)-Labelings of Some Families of Oriented Planar Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2014
In this paper we determine, or give lower and upper bounds on, the 2-dipath and oriented L(2, 1)-span of the family of planar graphs, planar graphs with girth 5, 11, 16, partial k-trees, outerplanar graphs and cacti.

On the spread of outerplanar graphs

open access: yesSpecial Matrices, 2022
The spread of a graph is the difference between the largest and most negative eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. We show that for sufficiently large nn, the nn-vertex outerplanar graph with maximum spread is a vertex joined to a linear forest with Ω(n ...
