Enumerating edge-constrained triangulations and edge-constrained non-crossing geometric spanning trees

Enumerating Constrained Non-crossing Geometric Spanning Trees

In this paper we present an algorithm for enumerating without repetitions all non-crossing geometric spanning trees on a given set of n points in the plane under edge constraints (i.e., some edges are required to be included in spanning trees). We will first prove that a set of all edge-constrained non-crossing spanning trees is connected via remove-add flips, based on the constrained smallest ...

Edge Operations on Non-Crossing Spanning Trees

Enumerating Constrained Non-crossing Minimally Rigid Frameworks

In this paper we present an algorithm for enumerating without repetitions all the non-crossing generically minimally rigid bar-and-joint frameworks under edge constraints, which we call constrained non-crossing Laman frameworks, on a given set of n points in the plane. Our algorithm is based on the reverse search paradigm of Avis and Fukuda. It generates each output graph in O(n) time and O(n) ...

Edge-connectivity and edge-disjoint spanning trees

where the minimum is taken over all subsets X of E(G) such that ω(G − X) − c > 0. In this paper, we establish a relationship 7 between λc(G) and τc−1(G), which gives a characterization of the edge-connectivity of a graph G in terms of the spanning tree 8 packing number of subgraphs of G. The digraph analogue is also obtained. The main results are applied to show that if a graph G is 9 s-hamilto...

Chain-constrained spanning trees

We consider the problem of finding a spanning tree satisfying a family of additional constraints. Several settings have been considered previously, the most famous being the problem of finding a spanning tree with degree constraints. Since the problem is hard, the goal is typically to find a spanning tree that violates the constraints as little as possible. Iterative rounding has become the too...
