This thesis is devoted to the understanding of topological graphs. We consider the following four problems: 1. A \emph{simple topological graph} is a graph drawn in the plane so that its edges are represented by continuous arcs with the property that any t ...
This article develops a vector-based 3D graphic statics framework that uses synthetic and intuitive graphical means for the analysis and design of spatial structures such as networks of bar elements in static equilibrium. It is intended to support the coll ...
The crossing number CR(G) of a graph G = (V, E) is the smallest number of edge crossings over all drawings of G in the plane. For any k >= 1, the k-planar crossing number of G, CRk(G), is defined as the minimum of CR(G(0)) + CR(G(1)) + ... + CR(G(k-i)) ove ...
A simple topological graph is a graph drawn in the plane so that its edges are represented by continuous arcs with the property that any two of them meet at most once. Let be a complete simple topological graph on vertices. The three edges induced by any t ...
Many graph mining and network analysis problems rely on the availability of the full network over a set of nodes. But inferring a full network is sometimes non-trivial if the raw data is in the form of many small {\em patches} or subgraphs, of the true net ...
We present a novel method for building a multiresolution representation of large digital surface models. The surface points coincide with the nodes of a planar graph which can be processed using a critically sampled, invertible lifting scheme. To drive the ...
A simple topological graph G is a graph drawn in the plane so that any pair of edges have at most one point in common, which is either an endpoint or a proper crossing. G is called saturated if no further edge can be added without violating this condition. ...
A monotone cylindrical graph is a topological graph drawn on an open cylinder with an infinite vertical axis satisfying the condition that every vertical line intersects every edge at most once. It is called simple if any pair of its edges have at most one ...
It is shown that fora constant t is an element of N, every simple topological graph on n vertices has 0(n) edges if the graph has no two sets of t edges such that every edge in one set is disjoint from all edges of the other set (i.e., the complement of th ...
We investigate properties of spatial graphs on the standard torus. It is known that nontrivial embeddings of planar graphs in the torus contain a nontrivial knot or a non-split link due to [2, 3]. Building on this and using the chirality of torus knots and ...
