چکیده
We show that graph-theoretic thickness and geometric thickness are not asymptotically equivalent: for every t, there exists a graph with thickness three and geometric thickness ≥ t.

We show that geometric thickness and book thickness are not asymptotically equivalent: for every t, there exists a graph with geometric thickness two and book thickness ≥ t.
متن کاملBounded-Degree Graphs have Arbitrarily Large Geometric Thickness
The geometric thickness of a graph G is the minimum integer k such that there is a straight line drawing of G with its edge set partitioned into k plane subgraphs. Eppstein [Separating thickness from geometric thickness. In Towards a Theory of Geometric Graphs, vol. 342 of Contemp. Math., AMS, 2004] asked whether every graph of bounded maximum degree has bounded geometric thickness. We answer t...

We define the geometric thickness of a graph to be the smallest number of layers such that we can draw the graph in the plane with straightline edges and assign each edge to a layer so that no two edges on the same layer cross. The geometric thickness lies between two previously studied quantities, the (graph-theoretical) thickness and the book thickness. We investigate the geometric thickness ...
