We present an expected polynomial time algorithm to generate a 2-connected unlabeled planar graph uniformly at random. To do this we first derive recurrence formulas to count the ...
A graph G is a support for a hypergraph H = (V, S) if the vertices of G correspond to the vertices of H such that for each hyperedge Si ∈ S the subgraph of G induced by Si is co...

Abstract. CrossingNumber is one of the most challenging algorithmic problems in topological graph theory, with applications to graph drawing and VLSI layout. No polynomial time con...
We define a multivariate polynomial that generalizes in a unified way the twovariable interlace polynomial defined by Arratia, Bollob´as and Sorkin on the one hand, and a one-...
Dealing with the NP-complete Dominating Set problem on graphs, we demonstrate the power of data reduction by preprocessing from a theoretical as well as a practical side. In parti...
