Extending Partial Representations of Circle Graphs in Near-Linear Time

Authors: Guido Brückner, Ignaz Rutter, and Peter Stumpf

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 241, 47th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2022)

Abstract

The partial representation extension problem generalizes the recognition problem for geometric intersection graphs. The input consists of a graph G, a subgraph H ⊆ G and a representation H of H. The question is whether G admits a representation G whose restriction to H is H. We study this question for circle graphs, which are intersection graphs of chords of a circle. Their representations are called chord diagrams. We show that for a graph with n vertices and m edges the partial representation extension problem can be solved in O((n + m) α(n + m)) time, where α is the inverse Ackermann function. This improves over an O(n³)-time algorithm by Chaplick, Fulek and Klavík [2019]. The main technical contributions are a canonical way of orienting chord diagrams and a novel compact representation of the set of all canonically oriented chord diagrams that represent a given circle graph G, which is of independent interest.

An SPQR-Tree-Like Embedding Representation for Level Planarity

Authors: Guido Brückner and Ignaz Rutter

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 181, 31st International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2020)

Abstract

An SPQR-tree is a data structure that efficiently represents all planar embeddings of a biconnected planar graph. It is a key tool in a number of constrained planarity testing algorithms, which seek a planar embedding of a graph subject to some given set of constraints. We develop an SPQR-tree-like data structure that represents all level-planar embeddings of a biconnected level graph with a single source, called the LP-tree, and give a simple algorithm to compute it in linear time. Moreover, we show that LP-trees can be used to adapt three constrained planarity algorithms to the level-planar case by using them as a drop-in replacement for SPQR-trees.
