Abstract
AbstractIn a fan-planar drawing of a graph an edge can cross only edges with a common end-vertex. Fan-planar drawings have been recently introduced by Kaufmann and Ueckerdt, who proved that every n-vertex fan-planar drawing has at most 5n − 10 edges, and that this bound is tight for n ≥ 20. We extend their result from both the combinatorial and the algorithmic point of view. We prove tight bounds on the density of constrained versions of fan-planar drawings and study the relationship between fan-planarity and k-planarity. Also, we prove that testing fan-planarity in the variable embedding setting is NP-complete.KeywordsComplexity ResultCombinatorial PropertyOuter FaceGeometric GraphOuterplanar GraphThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
