Structure and Independence in Hyperbolic Uniform Disk Graphs

Authors: Thomas Bläsius, Jean-Pierre von der Heydt, Sándor Kisfaludi-Bak, Marcus Wilhelm, and Geert van Wordragen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
We consider intersection graphs of disks of radius r in the hyperbolic plane. Unlike the Euclidean setting, these graph classes are different for different values of r, where very small r corresponds to an almost-Euclidean setting and r ∈ Ω(log n) corresponds to a firmly hyperbolic setting. We observe that larger values of r create simpler graph classes, at least in terms of separators and the computational complexity of the Independent Set problem. First, we show that intersection graphs of disks of radius r in the hyperbolic plane can be separated with 𝒪((1+1/r)log n) cliques in a balanced manner. Our second structural insight concerns Delaunay complexes in the hyperbolic plane and may be of independent interest. We show that for any set S of n points with pairwise distance at least 2r in the hyperbolic plane, the corresponding Delaunay complex has outerplanarity 1+𝒪((log n)/r), which implies a similar bound on the balanced separators and treewidth of such Delaunay complexes. Using this outerplanarity (and treewidth) bound we prove that Independent Set can be solved in n^𝒪(1+(log n)/r) time. The algorithm is based on dynamic programming on some unknown sphere cut decomposition that is based on the solution. The resulting algorithm is a far-reaching generalization of a result of Kisfaludi-Bak (SODA 2020), and it is tight under the Exponential Time Hypothesis. In particular, Independent Set is polynomial-time solvable in the firmly hyperbolic setting of r ∈ Ω(log n). Finally, in the case when the disks have ply (depth) at most 𝓁, we give a PTAS for Maximum Independent Set that has only quasi-polynomial dependence on 1/ε and 𝓁. Our PTAS is a further generalization of our exact algorithm.

Efficient Shortest Paths in Scale-Free Networks with Underlying Hyperbolic Geometry

Authors: Thomas Bläsius, Cedric Freiberger, Tobias Friedrich, Maximilian Katzmann, Felix Montenegro-Retana, and Marianne Thieffry

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 107, 45th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2018)

Abstract
A common way to accelerate shortest path algorithms on graphs is the use of a bidirectional search, which simultaneously explores the graph from the start and the destination. It has been observed recently that this strategy performs particularly well on scale-free real-world networks. Such networks typically have a heterogeneous degree distribution (e.g., a power-law distribution) and high clustering (i.e., vertices with a common neighbor are likely to be connected themselves). These two properties can be obtained by assuming an underlying hyperbolic geometry. To explain the observed behavior of the bidirectional search, we analyze its running time on hyperbolic random graphs and prove that it is {O~}(n^{2 - 1/alpha} + n^{1/(2 alpha)} + delta_{max}) with high probability, where alpha in (0.5, 1) controls the power-law exponent of the degree distribution, and delta_{max} is the maximum degree. This bound is sublinear, improving the obvious worst-case linear bound. Although our analysis depends on the underlying geometry, the algorithm itself is oblivious to it.
