The Effect of Planarization on Width

open access: yesJournal of Graph Algorithms and Applications, 2018
We study the effects on graph width parameters of planarization, the construction of a planar diagram from a non-planar graph drawing by replacing each crossing with a new vertex. We show that for treewidth, pathwidth, branchwidth, clique-width, and tree-

Pathwidth and Nonrepetitive List Coloring

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2016
A vertex coloring of a graph is nonrepetitive if there is no path in the graph whose first half receives the same sequence of colors as the second half. While every tree can be nonrepetitively colored with a bounded number of colors (4 colors is enough), Fiorenzi, Ochem, Ossona de Mendez, and Zhu recently showed that this does not extend to the list ...

The Bounded Pathwidth of Control-Flow Graphs

open access: yes, 2023
Pathwidth and treewidth are standard and well-studied graph sparsity parameters which intuitively model the degree to which a given graph resembles a path or a tree, respectively.

On the Complexity of Embedding in Graph Products

open access: yesComputing in Geometry and Topology
Graph embedding, especially as a subgraph of a grid, is an old topic in VLSI design and graph drawing. In this paper, we investigate related questions concerning the complexity of embedding a graph G in a host graph that is the strong product of a path ...

The Pebble-Relation Comonad in Finite Model Theory [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science

Treewidth and pathwidth of permutation graphs [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 1993
This paper is the first one in a series of articles using scanlines in intersection models of graphs. The new concept enables to prove that every minimal triangulation of a permutation graph into a chordal graph is an interval graph, a result that generalizes to minimal triangulations of asteroidal-triple free graphs [Discrete Appl. Math.

On Approximating Cutwidth and Pathwidth

open access: yes2024 IEEE 65th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (FOCS)
We study graph ordering problems with a min-max objective. A classical problem of this type is cutwidth, where given a graph we want to order its vertices such that the number of edges crossing any point is minimized. We give a $ \log^{1+o(1)}(n)$ approximation for the problem, substantially improving upon the previous poly-logarithmic guarantees based

1-Planarity of Graphs with a Rotation System

open access: yesJournal of Graph Algorithms and Applications, 2015
A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. 1-planarity is known NP-hard, even for graphs of bounded bandwidth, pathwidth, or treewidth, and for near-planar graphs in which an edge is added to a planar

Exclusive graph searching vs. pathwidth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In Graph Searching, a team of searchers aims at capturing an invisible fugitive moving arbitrarily fast in a graph. Equivalently, the searchers try to clear a contaminated network.

A linear fixed parameter tractable algorithm for connected pathwidth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The graph parameter of pathwidth can be seen as a measure of the topological resemblance of a graph to a path. A popular definition of pathwidth is given in terms of node search where we are given a system of tunnels that is contaminated by some ...
