An improved bound on the largest induced forests for triangle-free planar graphs
We proved that every planar triangle-free graph with n vertices has a subset of vertices that induces a forest of size at least (71n + 72)/128. This improves the earlier work of S...

On the Small Cycle Transversal of Planar Graphs
We consider the problem of finding a k-edge transversal set that covers all (simple) cycles of length at most s in a planar graph, where s ≥ 3 is a constant. This problem, refe...

Vertices of given degree in series-parallel graphs
We show that the number of vertices of a given degree k in several kinds of series-parallel labelled graphs of size n satisfy a central limit theorem with mean and variance proport...

Convex drawings of hierarchical planar graphs and clustered planar graphs
: Hierarchical graphs are graphs with layering structures; clustered graphs are graphs with recursive clustering structures. Both have applications in VLSI design, CASE tools, soft...

Enumerative Properties of Rooted Circuit Maps
In 1966 Barnette introduced a set of graphs, called circuit graphs, which are obtained from 3-connected planar graphs by deleting a vertex. Circuit graphs and 3-connected planar g...

Vertex Disjoint Paths for Dispatching in Railways
We study variants of the vertex disjoint paths problem in planar graphs where paths have to be selected from a given set of paths. We study the problem as a decision, maximization...

Separator-Based Sparsification II: Edge and Vertex Connectivity
We consider the problem of maintaining a dynamic planar graph subject to edge insertions and edge deletions that preserve planarity but that can change the embedding. We describe a...

Diameter and Treewidth in Minor-Closed Graph Families, Revisited
Eppstein [5] characterized the minor-closed graph families for which the treewidth is bounded by a function of the diameter, which includes e.g. planar graphs. This characterizatio...

Homomorphisms and edge-colourings of planar graphs
We conjecture that every planar graph of odd-girth 2k + 1 admits a homomorphism to Cayley graph C(Z2k+1 2 , S2k+1), with S2k+1 being the set of (2k + 1)vectors with exactly two co...
