A Planarity Criterion for Graphs [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2015 It is proven that a connected graph is planar if and only if all its cocycles with at least four edges are "grounded" in the graph. The notion of grounding of this planarity criterion, which is purely combinatorial, stems from the intuitive idea that with planarity there should be a linear ordering of the edges of a cocycle such that in the two ...

Discrete Applied Mathematics, 2017 A graph is NIC-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane with at most one crossing per edge and such that two pairs of crossing edges share at most one common end vertex. NIC-planarity generalizes IC-planarity, which allows a vertex to be incident to at most one crossing edge, and specializes 1-planarity, which only requires at most one crossing per ...

The Liouville and the intersection properties are equivalent for planar graphs [PDF]
, 2012 It is shown that if a planar graph admits no non-constant bounded harmonic function then the trajectories of two independent simple random walks intersect almost ...

Computational Study on a PTAS for Planar Dominating Set Problem
Algorithms, 2013 The dominating set problem is a core NP-hard problem in combinatorial optimization and graph theory, and has many important applications. Baker [JACM 41,1994] introduces a k-outer planar graph decomposition-based framework for designing polynomial time ...

Minimum Cycle Base of Graphs Identified by Two Planar Graphs [PDF]
, 2007 In this paper, we study the minimum cycle base of the planar graphs obtained from two 2-connected planar graphs by identifying an edge (or a cycle) of one graph with the corresponding edge (or cycle) of another, related with map geometries, i.e ...

Sufficient Conditions of 6-Cycles Make Planar Graphs DP-4-Colorable
Mathematics, 2022 In simple graphs, DP-coloring is a generalization of list coloring and thus many results of DP-coloring generalize those of list coloring. Xu and Wu proved that every planar graph without 5-cycles adjacent simultaneously to 3-cycles and 4-cycles is 4 ...

Planar and poly-arc Lombardi drawings
Journal of Computational Geometry, 2018 In Lombardi drawings of graphs, edges are represented as circular arcs and the edges incident on vertices have perfect angular resolution. It is known that not every planar graph has a planar Lombardi drawing.

Good triangulations yield good tours [PDF]
, 2008 Consider the following heuristic for planar Euclidean instances of the traveling salesman problem (TSP): select a subset of the edges which induces a planar graph, and solve either the TSP or its graphical relaxation on that graph. In this paper, we give

On Longest Cycles in Essentially 4-Connected Planar Graphs
Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2016 A planar 3-connected graph G is essentially 4-connected if, for any 3-separator S of G, one component of the graph obtained from G by removing S is a single vertex.
