In 1991, Bollobás and Frieze showed that the threshold for $G_{n,p}$ to contain a spanning maximal planar subgraph is very close to $p = n^{-1/3}$. In this paper, we compute similar threshold ranges for $G_{n,p}$ to contain a maximal bipartite planar subgraph and for $G_{n,p}$ to contain a maximal planar subgraph of fixed girth $g$.
Kühn, Osthus and Taraz showed that for each γ>0 there exists C such that any n-vertex graph with minimum degree γn contains a planar subgraph with at least 2n-C edges. We find the optimum value of C for all γ<1/2 and sufficiently large n.
Let $G$ be a finite graph with minimum degree $r$. Form a random subgraph $G_p$ of $G$ by taking each edge of $G$ into $G_p$ independently and with probability $p$. We prove that for any constant $ε>0$, if $p=\frac{1+ε}{r}$, then $G_p$ is non-planar with probability approaching 1 as $r$ grows. This generalizes classical results on planarity of binomial random graphs.
We shall present an algorithm for determining whether or not a given planar graph H can ever be a subgraph of a 4-regular planar graph. The algorithm has running time O(|H|^{2.5}) and can be used to find an explicit 4-regular planar graph G containing H if such a graph exists. It shall not matter whether we specify that H and G must be simple graphs or allow them to be multigraphs.
A graph is $1$-planar if it has a drawing in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once by another edge. Moreover, if this drawing has the additional property that for each crossing of two edges the end vertices of these edges induce a complete subgraph, then the graph is locally maximal $1$-planar. For a $3$-connected locally maximal $1$-planar graph $G$, we show the existence of a spanning $3$-connected planar subgraph and prove that $G$ is hamiltonian if $G$ has at most three $3$-vertex-cuts, and that $G$ is traceable if $G$ has at most four $3$-vertex-cuts. Moreover, infinitely …

An acyclic set in a digraph is a set of vertices that induces an acyclic subgraph. In 2011, Harutyunyan conjectured that every planar digraph on $n$ vertices without directed 2-cycles possesses an acyclic set of size at least $3n/5$. We prove this conjecture for digraphs where every directed cycle has length at least 8. More generally, if $g$ is the length of the shortest directed cycle, we show that there exists an acyclic set of size at least $(1 - 3/g)n$.
This paper constructs a planar graph $G_1$ such that for any subgraph $H$ of $G_1$ with maximum degree $Δ(H) \le 3$, $G_1-E(H)$ is not $3$-choosable, and a planar graph $G_2$ such that for any star forest $F$ in $G_2$, $G_2-E(F)$ contains a copy of $K_4$ and hence $G_2-E(F)$ is not $3$-colourable. On the other hand, we prove that every planar graph $G$ contains a forest $F$ such that the Alon-Tarsi number of $G - E(F)$ is at most $3$, and hence $G - E(F)$ is 3-paintable and 3-choosable.

Given graphs $G$ and $H$, we propose a method to implicitly enumerate topological-minor-embeddings of $H$ in $G$ using decision diagrams. We show a useful application of our method to enumerating subgraphs characterized by forbidden topological minors, that is, planar, outerplanar, series-parallel, and cactus subgraphs. Computational experiments show that our method can find all planar subgraphs in a given graph at most five orders of magnitude faster than a naive backtracking-based method.
The purpose of this paper is to show that all maximally planar subgraphs of graphs in the Petersen Family have associated conflict graphs unbalanced. All but three strong conflict graphs arising from Petersen Family Graphs are unbalanced, and the three that are balanced all come from $K_{4,4}-e$.

It follows from the work of Tait and the Four-Color-Theorem that a planar cubic graph is 3-edge-colorable if and only if it contains no bridge. We consider the question of which planar graphs are subgraphs of planar cubic bridgeless graphs, and hence 3-edge-colorable. We provide an efficient recognition algorithm that given an $n$-vertex planar graph, augments this graph in $O(n^2)$ steps to a planar cubic bridgeless supergraph, or decides that no such augmentation is possible. The main tools involve the Generalized Antifactor-problem for the fixed embedding case, and SPQR-trees for the variab…
A graph $G$ is $k$-degenerate if it can be transformed into an empty graph by subsequent removals of vertices of degree $k$ or less. We prove that every connected planar graph with average degree $d \ge 2$ has a 4-degenerate induced subgraph containing at least $(38-d)/36$ of its vertices. This shows that every planar graph of order $n$ has a 4-degenerate induced subgraph of order more than $8/9 \cdot n$. We also consider a local variation of this problem and show that in every planar graph with at least 7 vertices, deleting a suitable vertex allows us to subsequently remove at least 6 more ve…
A graph $G$ is said to be a $k$-degenerate graph if any subgraph of $G$ contains a vertex of degree at most $k$. Let $κ$ be any non-negative function on the vertex set of $G$. We first define a $κ$-degenerate graph. Next we give an efficient algorithm to determine whether a graph is $κ$-degenerate. We revisit the concept of dynamic monopolies in graphs. The latter notion is used in formulation and analysis of spread of influence such as disease or opinion in social networks. We consider dynamic monopolies with (not necessarily positive) but integral threshold assignments. We obtain a sufficien…
For a fixed simple digraph $F$ and a given simple digraph $D$, an $F$-free $k$-coloring of $D$ is a vertex-coloring in which no induced copy of $F$ in $D$ is monochromatic. We study the complexity of deciding for fixed $F$ and $k$ whether a given simple digraph admits an $F$-free $k$-coloring. Our main focus is on the restriction of the problem to planar input digraphs, where it is only interesting to study the cases $k \in \{2,3\}$. From known results it follows that for every fixed digraph $F$ whose underlying graph is not a forest, every planar digraph $D$ admits an $F$-free $2$-coloring, a…
A graph is $k$-degenerate if every subgraph has minimum degree at most $k$. We provide lower bounds on the size of a maximum induced 2-degenerate subgraph in a triangle-free planar graph. We denote the size of a maximum induced 2-degenerate subgraph of a graph $G$ by $α_2(G)$. We prove that if $G$ is a connected triangle-free planar graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, then $α_2(G) \geq \frac{6n - m - 1}{5}$. By Euler's Formula, this implies $α_2(G) \geq \frac{4}{5}n$. We also prove that if $G$ is a triangle-free planar graph on $n$ vertices with at most $n_3$ vertices of degree at most thre…
A \emph{wheel} is a graph formed by a chordless cycle $C$ and a vertex $u$ not in $C$ that has at least three neighbors in $C$. We prove that every 3-connected planar graph that does not contain a wheel as an induced subgraph is either a line graph or has a clique cutset. We prove that every planar graph that does not contain a wheel as an induced subgraph is 3-colorable.
A graph is {\em $1$-planar} if it can be drawn in the plane such that every edge crosses at most one other edge. A connected graph $H$ is {\em strongly light} in a family of graphs $\mathfrak{G}$, if there exists a constant $λ$, such that every graph $G$ in $\mathfrak{G}$ contains a subgraph $K$ isomorphic to $H$ with $°_{G}(v) \leq λ$ for all $v \in V(K)$. In this paper, we present some strongly light subgraphs in the family of $1$-planar graphs with minimum degree~$7$.
In 2007 Matamala proved that if $G$ is a simple graph with maximum degree $Δ\geq 3$ not containing $K_{Δ+1}$ as a subgraph and $s, t$ are positive integers such that $s+t \geq Δ$, then the vertex set of $G$ admits a partition $(S,T)$ such that $G[S]$ is a maximum order $(s-1)$-degenerate subgraph of $G$ and $G[T]$ is a $(t-1)$-degenerate subgraph of $G$. This result extended earlier results obtained by Borodin, by Bollobás and Manvel, by Catlin, by Gerencsér and by Catlin and Lai. In this paper we prove a hypergraph version of this result and extend it to variable degeneracy and to partitions …
We address the following question: When a randomly chosen regular bipartite multi--graph is drawn in the plane in the ``standard way'', what is the distribution of its maximum size planar matching (set of non--crossing disjoint edges) and maximum size planar subgraph (set of non--crossing edges which may share endpoints)? The problem is a generalization of the Longest Increasing Sequence (LIS) problem (also called Ulam's problem). We present combinatorial identities which relate the number of $r$-regular bipartite multi--graphs with maximum planar matching (maximum planar subgraph)of at most $…
We consider the Grassmann graph of $k$-dimensional subspaces of an $n$-dimensional vector space over the $q$-element field and its subgraph $Γ(n,k)_q$ formed by non-degenerate linear $[n,k]_q$ codes. We assume that $1<k<n-1$. It is well-known that every automorphism of the Grassmann graph is induced by a semilinear automorphism of the corresponding vector space or a semilinear isomorphism to the dual vector space; the second possibility is realized only if $n=2k$. Our results are the following: if $q\ge 3$ or $k\ne 2$, then every isomorphism of $Γ(n,k)_{q}$ to a subgraph of the Grassmann graph…

A tree-coloring of a maximal planar graph is a proper vertex $4$-coloring such that every bichromatic subgraph, induced by this coloring, is a tree. A maximal planar graph $G$ is tree-colorable if $G$ has a tree-coloring. In this article, we prove that a tree-colorable maximal planar graph $G$ with $δ(G)\geq 4$ contains at least four odd-vertices. Moreover, for a tree-colorable maximal planar graph of minimum degree 4 that contains exactly four odd-vertices, we show that the subgraph induced by its four odd-vertices is not a claw and contains no triangles.
A planar graph can be embedded in a piecewise linear manifold, and the lattice on each linear piece can be colored with 3-coloring. If a planar graph can be colored with multiple 3-coloring, i.e. coloring the graph in pieces with different 3-color subsets of 4 colors, then the graph is 4-colorable. In this paper, multiple 3-coloring was introduced, and then the combination and partition of planar graphs for multiple 3-coloring was studied. The study reveals that planar graphs can generally be decomposed into independent subgraphs, and each subgraph can be triangulated into a symmetric structur…
A matching $M$ in a graph $G$ is $r$-degenerate if the subgraph of $G$ induced by the set of vertices incident with an edge in $M$ is $r$-degenerate. Goddard, Hedetniemi, Hedetniemi, and Laskar (Generalized subgraph-restricted matchings in graphs, Discrete Mathematics 293 (2005) 129-138) introduced the notion of acyclic matchings, which coincide with $1$-degenerate matchings. Solving a problem they posed, we describe an efficient algorithm to determine the maximum size of an $r$-degenerate matching in a given chordal graph. Furthermore, we study the $r$-chromatic index of a graph defined as th…
We address the following question: When a randomly chosen regular bipartite multi--graph is drawn in the plane in the ``standard way'', what is the distribution of its maximum size planar matching (set of non--crossing disjoint edges) and maximum size planar subgraph (set of non--crossing edges which may share endpoints)? The problem is a generalization of the Longest Increasing Sequence (LIS) problem (also called Ulam's problem). We present combinatorial identities which relate the number of r-regular bipartite multi--graphs with maximum planar matching (maximum planar subgraph) of at most d …
Given a graph $G$ and a subset $F \subseteq E(G)$ of its edges, is there a drawing of $G$ in which all edges of $F$ are free of crossings? We show that this question can be solved in polynomial time using a Hanani-Tutte style approach. If we require the drawing of $G$ to be straight-line, and allow at most one crossing along each edge in $F$, the problem turns out to be as hard as the existential theory of the real numbers.

Hardness of Planarity for Weak Temporal Sequences of 2-Connected Graphs
研究2-连通图弱删除序列的同时平面可嵌入性问题，证明其NP难性。
We show that every graph has an induced pseudoforest of at least $n-m/4.5$ vertices, an induced partial 2-tree of at least $n-m/5$ vertices, and an induced planar subgraph of at least $n-m/5.2174$ vertices. These results are constructive, implying linear-time algorithms to find the respective induced subgraphs. We also show that the size of the largest $K_h$-minor-free graph in a given graph can sometimes be at most $n-m/6+o(m)$.
The maximum average degree $\mathrm{mad}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the maximum average degree over all subgraphs of $G$. In this paper we prove that for every $G$ and positive integer $k$ such that $\mathrm{mad}(G) \ge k$ there exists $S \subseteq V(G)$ such that $\mathrm{mad}(G - S) \le \mathrm{mad}(G) - k$ and $G[S]$ is $(k-1)$-degenerate. Moreover, such $S$ can be computed in polynomial time. In particular there exists an independent set $I$ in $G$ such that $\mathrm{mad}(G-I) \le \mathrm{mad}(G)-1$ and an induced forest $F$ such that $\mathrm{mad}(G-F) \le \mathrm{mad}(G) - 2$.
Weak degeneracy is a variation of degeneracy which shares many nice properties of degeneracy. In particular, if a graph $G$ is weakly $d$-degenerate, then for any $(d + 1)$-list assignment $L$ of $G$, one can construct an $L$-coloring of $G$ by a modified greedy coloring algorithm. It is known that planar graphs of girth 5 are 3-choosable and locally planar graphs are 5-choosable. This paper strengthens these results and proves that planar graphs of girth 5 are weakly 2-degenerate and locally planar graphs are weakly 4-degenerate.
A graph is called 1-planar if there exists its drawing in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. In this paper, we study 1-planar graph joins. We prove that the join $G+H$ is 1-planar if and only if the pair $[G,H]$ is subgraph-majorized (that is, both $G$ and $H$ are subgraphs of graphs of the major pair) by one of pairs $[C_3 \cup C_3,C_3], [C_4,C_4], [C_4,C_3], [K_{2,1,1},P_3]$ in the case when both factors of the graph join have at least three vertices. If one factor has at most two vertices, then we give several necessary/sufficient conditions for the bigger factor.
Tutte showed that a graph $G$ is planar if and only if the conflict graph associated to every cycle of $G$ is bipartite. We define a (not necessarily unique) signed conflict graph associated to a maximally planar subgraph of a nonplanar graph such that if $G$ has a flat embedding, every possible conflict graph associated to every maximally planar subgraph of $G$ is balanced. In doing this, we show that for every graph $G$ with flat embedding, and a planar subgraph $P$ of $G$, $P$ lies on a sphere that intersects $G$ only in $P$. We conjecture that $G$ is intrinsically linked if and only if eve…
The 3-Decomposition Conjecture states that every connected cubic graph can be decomposed into a spanning tree, a 2-regular subgraph and a matching. We show that this conjecture holds for the class of connected plane cubic graphs.
Large Induced Subgraphs of Bounded Degree in Outerplanar and Planar Graphs

The \emph{slow-coloring game} is played by Lister and Painter on a graph $G$. Initially, all vertices of $G$ are uncolored. In each round, Lister marks a nonempty set $M$ of uncolored vertices, and Painter colors a subset of $M$ that is independent in $G$. The game ends when all vertices are colored. The score of the game is the sum of the sizes of all sets marked by Lister. The goal of Painter is to minimize the score, while Lister tries to maximize it. We provide strategies for Painter on various classes of graphs whose vertices can be partitioned into a bounded number of sets inducing fores…
Recently, the second and third author showed that complete geometric graphs on $2n$ vertices in general cannot be partitioned into $n$ plane spanning trees. Building up on this work, in this paper, we initiate the study of partitioning into beyond planar subgraphs, namely into $k$-planar and $k$-quasi-planar subgraphs and obtain first bounds on the number of subgraphs required in this setting.
The digraph chromatic number of a directed graph $D$, denoted $χ_A(D)$, is the minimum positive integer $k$ such that there exists a partition of the vertices of $D$ into $k$ disjoint sets, each of which induces an acyclic subgraph. For any $m \geq 1$, a digraph is weakly $m$-degenerate if each of its induced subgraphs has a vertex of in-degree or out-degree less than $m$. We introduce a generalization of the digraph chromatic number, namely $χ_m(D)$, which is the minimum number of sets into which the vertices of a digraph $D$ can be partitioned so that each set induces a weakly $m$-degenerate…
Random planar graphs have been the subject of much recent work. Many basic properties of the standard uniform random planar graph P_{n}, by which we mean a graph chosen uniformly at random from the set of all planar graphs with vertex set {1,2,...,n}, are now known, and variations on this standard random graph are also attracting interest. Prominent among the work on P_{n} have been asymptotic results for the probability that P_{n} will be connected or contain given components/subgraphs. Such progress has been achieved through a combination of counting arguments and a generating function appro…

The planar graph product structure theorem of Dujmović, Joret, Micek, Morin, Ueckerdt, and Wood [J. ACM 2020] states that every planar graph is a subgraph of the strong product of a graph with bounded treewidth and a path. This result has been the key tool to resolve important open problems regarding queue layouts, nonrepetitive colourings, centered colourings, and adjacency labelling schemes. In this paper, we extend this line of research by utilizing shallow minors to prove analogous product structure theorems for several beyond planar graph classes. The key observation that drives our work …
A graph is $k$-degenerate if every subgraph $H$ has a vertex $v$ with $d_{H}(v) \leq k$. The class of degenerate graphs plays an important role in the graph coloring theory. Observed that every $k$-degenerate graph is $(k + 1)$-choosable and $(k + 1)$-DP-colorable. Bernshteyn and Lee defined a generalization of $k$-degenerate graphs, which is called \emph{weakly $k$-degenerate}. The weak degeneracy plus one is an upper bound for many graph coloring parameters, such as choice number, DP-chromatic number and DP-paint number. In this paper, we give two sufficient conditions for a plane graph with…

A graph is $d$-degenerate if all its subgraphs have a vertex of degree at most $d$. We prove that there exists a constant $c$ such that for all natural numbers $d$ and $r$, every $d$-degenerate graph $H$ of chromatic number $r$ with $|V(H)| \ge 2^{d^22^{cr}}$ has Ramsey number at most $2^{d2^{cr}} |V(H)|$. This solves a conjecture of Burr and Erdős from 1973.
Let P_{n,m} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all planar graphs on {1,2,..., n} with exactly m(n) edges. We use counting arguments to investigate the probability that P_{n,m} will contain given components and subgraphs, finding that there is different asymptotic behaviour depending on the ratio m/n.

Kuo introduced his 4-point condensation in 2003 for bipartite planar graphs. In 2006 Kuo generalized this 4-point condensation to planar graphs that are not necessarily bipartite. His formula expressed the product between the number of perfect matching of the original graph $G$ and that of the subgraph obtained from $G$ by removing the four distinguished vertices as a Pfaffian of order 4, whose entries are numbers of perfect matchings of subgraphs of $G$ obtained by removing various pairs of vertices chosen from among the four distinguished ones. The compelling elegance of this formula is invi…

For a planar graph with a given f-vector $(f_{0}, f_{1}, f_{2}),$ we introduce a cubic polynomial whose coefficients depend on the f-vector. The planar graph is said to be real if all the roots of the corresponding polynomial are real. Thus we have a bipartition of all planar graphs into two disjoint class of graphs, real and complex ones. As a contribution toward a full recognition of planar graphs in this bipartition, we study and recognize completely a subclass of planar graphs that includes all the connected grid subgraphs. Finally, all the 2-connected triangle-free complex planar graphs o…
Let P_{n,d,D} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all labelled planar graphs on {1,2,...,n} with minimum degree at least d(n) and maximum degree at most D(n). We use counting arguments to investigate the probability that P_{n,d,D} wll contain given components and subgraphs, showing exactly when this is bounded away from 0 and 1 as n tends to infinity.
A decomposition of a graph $G$ is a family of subgraphs of $G$ whose edge sets form a partition of $E(G)$. In this paper, we prove that every triangle-free planar graph $G$ can be decomposed into a $2$-degenerate graph and a matching. Consequently, every triangle-free planar graph $G$ has a matching $M$ such that $G-M$ is online 3-DP-colorable. This strengthens an earlier result in [R. Škrekovski, {\em A Grötzsch-Type Theorem for List Colourings with Impropriety One}, Combin. Prob. Comput. 8 (1999), 493-507] that every triangle-free planar graph is $1$-defective $3$-choosable.
