On the complexity of the planar slope number problem

U Hoffmann - Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications, 2017 - jgaa-v4.cs.brown.edu
The planar slope number of a planar graph $ G $ is defined as the minimum number of
slopes that is required for a crossing-free straight-line drawing of $ G $. We show that …

[HTML][HTML] Drawing subcubic planar graphs with four slopes and optimal angular resolution

E Di Giacomo, G Liotta, F Montecchiani - Theoretical Computer Science, 2018 - Elsevier
A subcubic planar graph is a planar graph whose vertices have degree at most 3. We show
that the subcubic planar graphs with at least five vertices have planar slope number at most …

Drawing outer 1-planar graphs with few slopes

E Di Giacomo, G Liotta, F Montecchiani - Journal of Graph Algorithms and …, 2015 - jgaa.info
A graph is outer 1-planar if it admits a drawing where each vertex is on the outer face and
each edge is crossed by at most another edge. Outer 1-planar graphs are a superclass of …

Upward planar drawings with two slopes

J Klawitter, T Mchedlidze - arxiv preprint arxiv:2106.02839, 2021 - arxiv.org
In an upward planar 2-slope drawing of a digraph, edges are drawn as straight-line
segments in the upward direction without crossings using only two different slopes. We …

Testing the planar straight-line realizability of 2-trees with prescribed edge lengths

We study a classic problem introduced thirty years ago by Eades and Wormald. Let G=(V, E,
λ) be a weighted planar graph, where λ: E→ R+ is a length function. The Fixed Edge-Length …

[HTML][HTML] 1-bend upward planar slope number of SP-digraphs

E Di Giacomo, G Liotta, F Montecchiani - Computational Geometry, 2020 - Elsevier
It is proved that every series-parallel digraph whose maximum vertex degree is Δ admits an
upward planar drawing with at most one bend per edge such that each edge segment has …

Universal slope sets for 1-bend planar drawings

P Angelini, MA Bekos, G Liotta, F Montecchiani - Algorithmica, 2019 - Springer
We prove that every set of\varDelta-1 Δ-1 slopes is 1-bend universal for the planar graphs
with maximum vertex degree\varDelta Δ. This means that any planar graph with maximum …
