Upward Book Embeddings of st-Graphs

Authors: Carla Binucci, Giordano Da Lozzo, Emilio Di Giacomo, Walter Didimo, Tamara Mchedlidze, and Maurizio Patrignani

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 129, 35th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2019)


Abstract
We study k-page upward book embeddings (kUBEs) of st-graphs, that is, book embeddings of single-source single-sink directed acyclic graphs on k pages with the additional requirement that the vertices of the graph appear in a topological ordering along the spine of the book. We show that testing whether a graph admits a kUBE is NP-complete for k >= 3. A hardness result for this problem was previously known only for k = 6 [Heath and Pemmaraju, 1999]. Motivated by this negative result, we focus our attention on k=2. On the algorithmic side, we present polynomial-time algorithms for testing the existence of 2UBEs of planar st-graphs with branchwidth b and of plane st-graphs whose faces have a special structure. These algorithms run in O(f(b)* n+n^3) time and O(n) time, respectively, where f is a singly-exponential function on b. Moreover, on the combinatorial side, we present two notable families of plane st-graphs that always admit an embedding-preserving 2UBE.

Network Visualization in the Humanities (Dagstuhl Seminar 18482)

Authors: Katy Börner, Oyvind Eide, Tamara Mchedlidze, Malte Rehbein, and Gerik Scheuermann

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 8, Issue 11 (2019)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 18482 "Network Visualization in the Humanities", which took place November 26-30, 2019. The seminar brought together 27 researchers on Network Visualization and Digital Humanities communities. During the seminar the participants shared knowledge on the existing methods of network visualization and on network visualization challenges present in the Humanities through the introductory talks, the abstracts of which are included in this report. Multiple innovative research challenges for Network Visualisation in the Humanities have been identified and according to those four working groups have been set up that discussed the topics in detail. The summary of the discussions of the working groups is given in this report.

Strongly Monotone Drawings of Planar Graphs

Authors: Stefan Felsner, Alexander Igamberdiev, Philipp Kindermann, Boris Klemz, Tamara Mchedlidze, and Manfred Scheucher

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 51, 32nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2016)


Abstract
A straight-line drawing of a graph is a monotone drawing if for each pair of vertices there is a path which is monotonically increasing in some direction, and it is called a strongly monotone drawing if the direction of monotonicity is given by the direction of the line segment connecting the two vertices. We present algorithms to compute crossing-free strongly monotone drawings for some classes of planar graphs; namely, 3-connected planar graphs, outerplanar graphs, and 2-trees. The drawings of 3-connected planar graphs are based on primal-dual circle packings. Our drawings of outerplanar graphs depend on a new algorithm that constructs strongly monotone drawings of trees which are also convex. For irreducible trees, these drawings are strictly convex.
