Hardness of approximation for crossing number
We show that, if P6=NP, there is a constant c0 > 1 such that there is no c0approximation algorithm for the crossing number, even when restricted to 3-regular graphs.
متن کاملOn Hardness of the Joint Crossing Number
The Joint Crossing Number problem asks for a simultaneous embedding of two disjoint graphs into one surface such that the number of edge crossings (between the two graphs) is minimized. It was introduced by Negami in 2001 in connection with diagonal flips in triangulations of surfaces, and subsequently investigated in a general form for smallgenus surfaces. We prove that all of the commonly con...
متن کاملMETAHEURISTIC ALGORITHMS FOR MINIMUM CROSSING NUMBER PROBLEM
This paper presents the application of metaheuristic methods to the minimum crossing number problem for the first time. These algorithms including particle swarm optimization, improved ray optimization, colliding bodies optimization and enhanced colliding bodies optimization. For each method, a pseudo code is provided. The crossing number problem is NP-hard and has important applications in eng...
متن کاملA Tighter Insertion-Based Approximation of the Crossing Number
Let G be a planar graph and F a set of additional edges not yet in G. The multiple edge insertion problem (MEI) asks for a drawing of G+F with the minimum number of pairwise edge crossings, such that the subdrawing of G is plane. As an exact solution to MEI is NP-hard for general F , we present the first approximation algorithm for MEI which achieves an additive approximation factor (depending ...
متن کاملOdd Crossing Number Is Not Crossing Number
The crossing number of a graph is the minimum number of edge intersections in a plane drawing of a graph, where each intersection is counted separately. If instead we count the number of pairs of edges that intersect an odd number of times, we obtain the odd crossing number. We show that there is a graph for which these two concepts differ, answering a well-known open question on crossing numbe...
