Adding one edge to planar graphs makes crossing number hard
A graph is near-planar if it can be obtained from a planar graph by adding an edge. We show that it is NP-hard to compute the crossing number of near-planar graphs. The main idea ...

Planar Cycle Covering Graphs
We describe a new variational lower-bound on the minimum energy configuration of a planar binary Markov Random Field (MRF). Our method is based on adding auxiliary nodes to every...

Global minimum cuts in surface embedded graphs
We give a deterministic algorithm to find the minimum cut in a surface-embedded graph in near-linear time. Given an undirected graph embedded on an orientable surface of genus g,...

On the geometry of graphs with a forbidden minor
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...

On External-Memory Planar Depth First Search
Even though a large number of I/O-efficient graph algorithms have been developed, a number of fundamental problems still remain open. For example, no space- and I/O-efficient algo...
