چکیده

We define strict confluent drawing, a form of confluent drawing in which the existence of an edge is indicated by the presence of a smooth path through a system of arcs and junctions (without crossings), and in which such a path, if it exists, must be unique. We prove that it is NP-complete to determine whether a given graph has a strict confluent drawing but polynomial to determine whether it has an outerplanar strict confluent drawing with a fixed vertex ordering (a drawing within a disk, with the vertices placed in a given order on the boundary).

Biclique Edge Cover Graphs and Confluent Drawings

Confluent drawing is a technique that allows some non-planar graphs to be visualized in a planar way. This approach merges edges together, drawing groups of them as single tracks, similar to train tracks. In the general case, producing confluent drawings automatically has proven quite difficult. We introduce the biclique edge cover graph that represents a graph G as an interconnected set of cli...

Confluent Hasse Diagrams

We show that a transitively reduced digraph has a confluent upward drawing if and only if its reachability relation has order dimension at most two. In this case, we construct a confluent upward drawing with O(n2) features, in an O(n)×O(n) grid in O(n2) time. For the digraphs representing series-parallel partial orders we show how to construct a drawing with O(n) features in an O(n)×O(n) grid i...

Delta-Confluent Drawings

We generalize the tree-confluent graphs to a broader class of graphs called ∆-confluent graphs. This class of graphs and distancehereditary graphs, a well-known class of graphs, coincide. Some results about the visualization of ∆-confluent graphs are also given.

Confluent Orthogonal Drawings of Syntax Diagrams

We provide a pipeline for generating syntax diagrams (also called railroad diagrams) from context free grammars. Syntax diagrams are a graphical representation of a context free language, which we formalize abstractly as a set of mutually recursive nondeterministic finite automata and draw by combining elements from the confluent drawing, layered drawing, and smooth orthogonal drawing styles. W...

Confluent Drawings: Visualizing Non-planar Diagrams in a Planar Way

We introduce a new approach for drawing diagrams. Our approach is to use a technique we call confluent drawing for visualizing non-planar graphs in a planar way. This approach allows us to draw, in a crossing-free manner, graphs—such as software interaction diagrams—that would normally have many crossings. The main idea of this approach is quite simple: we allow groups of edges to be merged tog...
