Planar Graph Coloring Avoiding Monochromatic Subgraphs: Trees and Paths Make It Difficult
We consider the problem of coloring a planar graph with the minimum number of colors so that each color class avoids one or more forbidden graphs as subgraphs. We perform a detail...

Planar graph bipartization in linear time
For each constant k, we present a linear time algorithm that, given a planar graph G, either finds a minimum odd cycle vertex transversal in G or guarantees that there is no transv...

Adjacency posets of planar graphs
In this paper, we show that the dimension of the adjacency poset of a planar graph is at most 8. From below, we show that there is a planar graph whose adjacency poset has dimensio...

Universal Sets of n Points for One-bend Drawings of Planar Graphs with n Vertices
This paper shows that any planar graph with n vertices can be point-set embedded with at most one bend per edge on a universal set of n points in the plane. An implication of this...

Tree-width of hypergraphs and surface duality
In Graph Minors III, Robertson and Seymour write:"It seems that the tree-width of a planar graph and the tree-width of its geometric dual are approximately equal -- indeed, w...

Exact Shortest Path Queries for Planar Graphs Using Linear Space
We provide the first linear-space data structure with provable sublinear query time for exact point-topoint shortest path queries in planar graphs. We prove that for any planar gr...

Void Traversal for Guaranteed Delivery in Geometric Routing
Geometric routing algorithms like GFG (GPSR) are lightweight, scalable algorithms that can be used to route in resource-constrained ad hoc wireless networks. However, such algorith...

Good triangulations yield good tours
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 eithe...

Extension of a theorem of Whitney
It is shown that every planar graph with no separating triangles is a subgraph of a Hamiltonian planar graph; that is, Whitney’s theorem holds without the assumption of a triang...

Coloring powers of planar graphs
We give nontrivial bounds for the inductiveness or degeneracy of power graphs Gk of a planar graph G. This implies bounds for the chromatic number as well, since the inductiveness ...
