Straight-line Drawings of 1-planar Graphs

چکیده
The classical Fáry’s theorem from the 1930s states that every planar graph can be drawn as a straight-line drawing. In this paper, we extend Fáry’s theorem to non-planar graphs. More specifically, we study the problem of drawing 1-planar graphs with straight-line edges. A 1-planar graph is a sparse non-planar graph with at most one crossing per edge. We give a characterisation of those 1planar graphs that admit a straight-line drawing. The proof of the characterisation consists of a linear time testing algorithm and a drawing algorithm. We also show that there are 1-planar graphs for which every straight-line drawing has exponential area. To our best knowledge, this is the first result to extend Fáry’s theorem to non-planar graphs.

Morphing Planar Graphs Drawings Efficiently
A morph between two straight-line planar drawings of the same graph is a continuous transformation from the first to the second drawing such that planarity is preserved at all times. Each step of the morph moves each vertex at constant speed along a straight line. Although the existence of a morph between any two drawings was established several decades ago, only recently it has been proved tha...
متن کاملPlanar Drawings and Angular Resolution: Algorithms and Bounds (Extended Abstract)
We investigate the problem of constructing planar straight-line drawings of graphs with large angles between the edges. Namely, we study the angular resolution of planar straight-line drawings, deened as the smallest angle formed by two incident edges. We prove the rst nontrivial upper bound on the angular resolution of planar straight-line drawings, and show a continuous trade-oo between the a...
متن کامل1-Bend RAC Drawings of 1-Planar Graphs
A graph is 1-planar if it has a drawing where each edge is crossed at most once. A drawing is RAC (Right Angle Crossing) if the edges cross only at right angles. The relationships between 1-planar graphs and RAC drawings have been partially studied in the literature. It is known that there are both 1-planar graphs that are not straight-line RAC drawable and graphs that have a straight-line RAC ...
متن کاملStraight-Line Grid Drawings of 3-Connected 1-Planar Graphs
A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. In general, 1-planar graphs do not admit straightline drawings. We show that every 3-connected 1-planar graph has a straight-line drawing on an integer grid of quadratic size, with the exception of a single edge on the outer face that has one bend. The drawing can be computed in linear time from any...
