The Alcuin Number of a Graph
We consider a planning problem that generalizes Alcuin's river crossing problem (also known as: The wolf, goat, and cabbage puzzle) to scenarios with arbitrary conflict graph...

Approximating the Crossing Number of Toroidal Graphs
Abstract. CrossingNumber is one of the most challenging algorithmic problems in topological graph theory, with applications to graph drawing and VLSI layout. No polynomial time con...

Adding one edge to planar graphs makes crossing number hard
A graph is near-planar if it can be obtained from a planar graph by adding an edge. We show that it is NP-hard to compute the crossing number of near-planar graphs. The main idea ...

Outerplanar Crossing Numbers of 3-Row Meshes, Halin Graphs and Complete p-Partite Graphs
An outerplanar (also called circular, convex, one-page) drawing of an n-vertex graph G is a drawing in which the vertices are placed on a circle and each edge is drawn using one s...

Cross-Composition: A New Technique for Kernelization Lower Bounds
We introduce a new technique for proving kernelization lower bounds, called cross-composition. A classical problem L cross-composes into a parameterized problem Q if an instance o...
