A labeled embedding of a planar graph G is a pair (G, g) consisting of a planar drawing G of G and a function g assigning labels (colors) to the faces of G. We study the problem of Embedding Restriction Satisfiability (ERS) that investi- gates whether a given graph has a labeled embedding satisfying a provided set of conditions. ERS is a relatively new problem, so not much is known about it. Nevertheless, it has great potential. It generalizes several problems looking for a particular drawing of a planar graph, such as the problem of Partially Embedded Planarity. Therefore, ERS may become a focal point in the area of graph draw- ing. In this thesis, we examine the computational complexity of ERS. We show that ERS is NP-complete. After that, we look at the complexity of some specific classes of its instances. We try to locate the boundary between the NP-complete and the polynomial variants of the problem. 1 |
