Visibility graphs of point sets in the plane

چکیده
The visibility graph V(X) of a discrete point set X ⊂ R has vertex set X and an edge xy for every two points x, y ∈ X whenever there is no other point in X on the line segment between x and y. We show that for every graphG, there is a point setX ∈ R, such that the subgraph of V(X∪Z) induced by X is isomorphic to G. As a consequence, we show that there are visibility graphs of arbitrary high chromatic number with clique number six settling a question by Kára, Pór and Wood.

On Visibility Graphs of Point Sets in the Plane
The visibility graph V(X) of a discrete point set X ⊂ R2 has vertex set X and an edge xy for every two points x, y ∈ X whenever there is no other point in X on the line segment between x and y. We show that for every graph G, there is a point set X ∈ R2, such that the subgraph of V(X∪Z2) induced by X is isomorphic to G. As a consequence, we show that there are visibility graphs of arbitrary hig...
متن کاملAlgorithmic Aspects of Point Visibility Graphs
A point visibility graph is a graph induced by a set of points in the plane where the vertices of the graph represent the points in the point set and two vertices are adjacent if and only if no other point from the point set lies on the line segment between the two corresponding points. The set of all point visibility graphs form a graph class which is examined from a computational complexity p...
متن کاملCombinatorial geometry of point sets with collinearities
In this thesis we study various combinatorial problems relating to the geometry of point sets in the Euclidean plane. The unifying theme is that all the problems involve point sets that are not in general position, but have some collinearities. As well as giving rise to natural and interesting problems, the study of point sets with collinearities has important connections to other areas of math...
متن کاملRecognition and Complexity of Point Visibility Graphs
A point visibility graph is a graph induced by a set of points in the plane, where every vertex corresponds to a point, and two vertices are adjacent whenever the two corresponding points are visible from each other, that is, the open segment between them does not contain any other point of the set. We study the recognition problem for point visibility graphs: given a simple undirected graph, d...
متن کاملQuantitative visibility estimates for unrectifiable sets in the plane
The “visibility” of a planar set S from a point a is defined as the normalized size of the radial projection of S from a to the unit circle centered at a. Simon and Solomyak [36] proved that unrectifiable self-similar one-sets are invisible from every point in the plane. We quantify this by giving an upper bound on the visibility of δ-neighbourhoods of such sets. We also prove lower bounds on t...
