Finding k-edge-outerplanar graph embeddings ★★

Author(s): Bentz

Conjecture   It has been shown that a $ k $-outerplanar embedding for which $ k $ is minimal can be found in polynomial time. Does a similar result hold for $ k $-edge-outerplanar graphs?

Keywords: planar graph; polynomial algorithm

Approximation ratio for k-outerplanar graphs ★★

Author(s): Bentz

Conjecture   Is the approximation ratio for the Maximum Edge Disjoint Paths (MaxEDP) or the Maximum Integer Multiflow problem (MaxIMF) bounded by a constant in $ k $-outerplanar graphs or tree-width graphs?

Keywords: approximation algorithms; planar graph; polynomial algorithm

Approximation Ratio for Maximum Edge Disjoint Paths problem ★★

Author(s): Bentz

Conjecture   Can the approximation ratio $ O(\sqrt{n}) $ be improved for the Maximum Edge Disjoint Paths problem (MaxEDP) in planar graphs or can an inapproximability result stronger than $ \mathcal{APX} $-hardness?

Keywords: approximation algorithms; Disjoint paths; planar graph; polynomial algorithm
