Upright-Quad Drawing of st-Planar Learning Spaces

چکیده

We consider graph drawing algorithms for learning spaces, a type of st-oriented partial cube derived from antimatroids and used to model states of knowledge of students. We show how to draw any st-planar learning space so all internal faces are convex quadrilaterals with the bottom side horizontal and the left side vertical, with one minimal and one maximal vertex. Conversely, every such drawing represents an st-planar learning space. We also describe connections between these graphs and arrangements of translates of a quadrant.

Planar L-Drawings of Directed Graphs

We study planar drawings of directed graphs in the L-drawing standard. We provide necessary conditions for the existence of these drawings and show that testing for the existence of a planar L-drawing is an NP-complete problem. Motivated by this result, we focus on upwardplanar L-drawings. We show that directed st-graphs admitting an upward(resp. upward-rightward-) planar L-drawing are exactly ...

Bitonic st-orderings of Biconnected Planar Graphs

Vertex orderings play an important role in the design of graph drawing algorithms. Compared to canonical orderings, st-orderings lack a certain property that is required by many drawing methods. In this paper, we propose a new type of st-ordering for biconnected planar graphs that relates the ordering to the embedding. We describe a linear-time algorithm to obtain such an ordering and demonstra...

Pathwidth And Layered Drawings Of Trees

An h-layer drawing of a graph G is a planar drawing of G in which each vertex is placed on one of h parallel lines and each edge is drawn as a straight line between its end-vertices. In such a drawing, we say that an edge is proper if its endpoints lie on adjacent layers, flat if they lie on the same layer and long otherwise. Thus, a proper h-layer drawing contains only proper edges, a short h-...

Bitonic st-orderings for Upward Planar Graphs

Canonical orderings serve as the basis for many incremental planar drawing algorithms. All these techniques, however, have in common that they are limited to undirected graphs. While st-orderings do extend to directed graphs, especially planar st-graphs, they do not offer the same properties as canonical orderings. In this work we extend the so called bitonic st-orderings to directed graphs. We...

Drawing algorithms for planar st-graphs

We present a survey on algorithms for drawing planar digraphs such that the arcs do not intersect and are monotonically increasing in the vertical direction (upward planar drawings). Various graphic standards (e.g., and quality measures bends) are considered.
