چکیده

We define a natural class of graphs by generalizing prior notions of visibility, allowing the representing regions and sightlines to be arbitrary. We consider mainly the case of compact connected representing regions, proving two results giving necessary properties of visibility graphs, and giving some examples of classes of graphs that can be so represented. Finally, we give some applications of the concept, and we provide potential avenues for future research in the area.

Euclidean Pawel Winter 187 trees visibility

The notion of Steiner visibility graphs is introduced. Their applicability in connection with the construction of good quality suboptimal solutions to the Euclidean Steiner tree problem with obstacles is discussed. Polynomial algorithms generating Steiner visibility graphs are described.

F-Permutations induce Some Graphs and Matrices

In this paper, by using the notion of fuzzy subsets, the concept of F-permutation is introduced. Then by applying this notion the concepts of presentation of an F-polygroup, graph of an F-permutation and F-permutation matrices are investigated.

Arc- and circle-visibility graphs

We study polar visibility graphs, graphs whose vertices can be represented by arcs of concentric circles with adjacency determined by radial visibility including visibility through the origin. These graphs are more general than the well-studied bar-visibility graphs and are characterized here, when arcs are proper subsets of circles, as the graphs that embed on the plane with all but at most on...

Approximate entropy of network parameters.

We study the notion of approximate entropy within the framework of network theory. Approximate entropy is an uncertainty measure originally proposed in the context of dynamical systems and time series. We first define a purely structural entropy obtained by computing the approximate entropy of the so-called slide sequence. This is a surrogate of the degree sequence and it is suggested by the fr...

$n$-Array Jacobson graphs

We generalize the notion of Jacobson graphs into $n$-array columns called $n$-array Jacobson graphs and determine their connectivities and diameters. Also, we will study forbidden structures of these graphs and determine when an $n$-array Jacobson graph is planar, outer planar, projective, perfect or domination perfect.
