All Good Drawings of Small Complete Graphs ∗

چکیده
Good drawings (also known as simple topological graphs) are drawings of graphs such that any two edges intersect at most once. Such drawings have attracted attention as generalizations of geometric graphs, in connection with the crossing number, and as data structures in their own right. We are in particular interested in good drawings of the complete graph. In this extended abstract, we describe our techniques for generating all different weak isomorphism classes of good drawings of the complete graph for up to nine vertices. In addition, all isomorphism classes were enumerated. As an application of the obtained data, we present several existential and extremal properties of these drawings.

On the Biplanar Crossing Number of Kn
The crossing number cr(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of edge crossings over all drawings of G in the Euclidean plane. The k-planar crossing number crk(G) of G is min{cr(G1) + cr(G2) + . . .+ cr(Gk)}, where the minimum is taken over all possible decompositions of G into k subgraphs G1, G2, . . . , Gk. The problem of computing the crossing number of complete graphs, cr(Kn), exactly for sm...
متن کاملTopological Drawings of Complete Bipartite Graphs
Topological drawings are natural representations of graphs in the plane, where vertices are represented by points, and edges by curves connecting the points. Topological drawings of complete graphs and of complete bipartite graphs have been studied extensively in the context of crossing number problems. We consider a natural class of simple topological drawings of complete bipartite graphs, in ...
متن کاملArea-Efficient Static and Incremental Graph Drawings
In this paper, we present algorithms to produce orthogonal drawings of arbitrary graphs. As opposed to most known algorithms, we do not restrict ourselves to graphs with maximum degree 4. The best previous result gave an (m ? 1) (m 2 + 1)-grid for graphs with n nodes and m edges. We present algorithms for two scenarios. In the static scenario, the graph is given completely in advance. We produc...
متن کاملGraph Drawings with One Bend and Few Slopes
We consider drawings of graphs in the plane in which edges are represented by polygonal paths with at most one bend and the number of different slopes used by all segments of these paths is small. We prove that d 2 e edge slopes suffice for outerplanar drawings of outerplanar graphs with maximum degree ∆ > 3. This matches the obvious lower bound. We also show that d 2 e + 1 edge slopes suffice ...
متن کاملProximity Constraints and Representable Trees
This paper examines an infinite family of proximity drawings of graphs called open and closed ß-drawings, first defined by Kirkpatrick and Radke [15, 21] in the context of computational morphology. Such proximity drawings include as special cases the well-known Gabriel, relative neighborhood and strip drawings. Complete characterizations of those trees that admit open /^-drawings for 0 < ß < iz...
