Partial edge drawing (PED) is a drawing style for non-planar graphs, in which edges are drawn only partially as pairs of opposing stubs on the respective end-vertices. In a PED, by erasing the central parts of edges, all edge crossings and the resulting visual clutter are hidden in the undrawn parts of the edges. In symmetric partial edge drawings (SPEDs), the two stubs of each edge are required to have the same length. It is known that maximizing the ink (or the total stub length) when transforming a straight-line graph drawing with crossings into a SPED is tractable for 2-plane input drawings, but NP-hard for unrestricted inputs. We show that the problem remains NP-hard even for 3-plane input drawings and establish NP-hardness of ink maximization for PEDs of 4-plane graphs. Yet, for k-plane input drawings whose edge intersection graph forms a collection of trees or, more generally, whose intersection graph has bounded treewidth, we present efficient algorithms for computing maximum-ink PEDs and SPEDs. We implemented the treewidth-based algorithms and show a brief experimental evaluation.

When can a plane graph with prescribed edge lengths and prescribed angles (from among ${0,180^circ, 360^circ$}) be folded flat to lie in an infinitesimally thin line, without crossings? This problem generalizes the classic theory of single-vertex fla
t origami with prescribed mountain-valley assignment, which corresponds to the case of a cycle graph. We characterize such flat-foldable plane graphs by two obviously necessary but also sufficient conditions, proving a conjecture made in 2001: the angles at each vertex should sum to $360^circ$, and every face of the graph must itself be flat foldable. This characterization leads to a linear-time algorithm for testing flat foldability of plane graphs with prescribed edge lengths and angles, and a polynomial-time algorithm for counting the number of distinct folded states.
K{a}rolyi, Pach, and T{o}th proved that every 2-edge-colored straight-line drawing of the complete graph contains a monochromatic plane spanning tree. It is open if this statement generalizes to other classes of drawings, specifically, to simple draw
ings of the complete graph. These are drawings where edges are represented by Jordan arcs, any two of which intersect at most once. We present two partial results towards such a generalization. First, we show that the statement holds for cylindrical simple drawings. (In a cylindrical drawing, all vertices are placed on two concentric circles and no edge crosses either circle.) Second, we introduce a relaxation of the problem in which the graph is $k$-edge-colored, and the target structure must be hypochromatic, that is, avoid (at least) one color class. In this setting, we show that every $lceil (n+5)/6rceil$-edge-colored monotone simple drawing of $K_n$ contains a hypochromatic plane spanning tree. (In a monotone drawing, every edge is represented as an $x$-monotone curve.)
Symmetry is an important factor in human perception in general, as well as in the visualization of graphs in particular. There are three main types of symmetry: reflective, translational, and rotational. We report the results of a human subjects expe
riment to determine what types of symmetries are more salient in drawings of graphs. We found statistically significant evidence that vertical reflective symmetry is the most dominant (when selecting among vertical reflective, horizontal reflective, and translational). We also found statistically significant evidence that rotational symmetry is affected by the number of radial axes (the more, the better), with a notable exception at four axes.
We study the question whether a crossing-free 3D morph between two straight-line drawings of an $n$-vertex tree can be constructed consisting of a small number of linear morphing steps. We look both at the case in which the two given drawings are two
-dimensional and at the one in which they are three-dimensional. In the former setting we prove that a crossing-free 3D morph always exists with $O(log n)$ steps, while for the latter $Theta(n)$ steps are always sufficient and sometimes necessary.
Hills Conjecture states that the crossing number $text{cr}(K_n)$ of the complete graph $K_n$ in the plane (equivalently, the sphere) is $frac{1}{4}lfloorfrac{n}{2}rfloorlfloorfrac{n-1}{2}rfloorlfloorfrac{n-2}{2}rfloorlfloorfrac{n-3}{2}rfloor=n^4/64 +
O(n^3)$. Moon proved that the expected number of crossings in a spherical drawing in which the points are randomly distributed and joined by geodesics is precisely $n^4/64+O(n^3)$, thus matching asymptotically the conjectured value of $text{cr}(K_n)$. Let $text{cr}_P(G)$ denote the crossing number of a graph $G$ in the projective plane. Recently, Elkies proved that the expected number of crossings in a naturally defined random projective plane drawing of $K_n$ is $(n^4/8pi^2)+O(n^3)$. In analogy with the relation of Moons result to Hills conjecture, Elkies asked if $lim_{ntoinfty} text{cr}_P(K_n)/n^4=1/8pi^2$. We construct drawings of $K_n$ in the projective plane that disprove this.
