Straight-line drawings of outerplanar graphs in O(dn log n) area
AbstractWe show an algorithm for constructing O(dnlogn) area outerplanar straight-line drawings of n-vertex outerplanar graphs with degree d. Also, we settle in the negative a conjecture (Biedl, 2002 [1]) on the area requirements of outerplanar graphs by showing that snowflake graphs admit linear-area drawings
Every Collinear Set in a Planar Graph is Free
We show that if a planar graph G has a plane straight-line drawing in which a subset S
of its vertices are collinear, then for any set of points, X, in the plane with |X| = |S|,
there is a plane straight-line drawing of G in which the vertices in S are mapped
to the points in X. This solves an open problem posed by Ravsky and Verbitsky
(in: Proceedings of the 37th International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts
in Computer Science, arXiv:0806.0253). In their terminology, we show that every
collinear set is free.This result has applications in graph drawing, including untangling,
column planarity, universal point subsets, and partial simultaneous drawings
