摘要
A graph is a visibility graph if its vertices nu(l),...,nu(n) can be associated with disjoint horizontal line segments s(l),...,s(n) in the plane such that nu(i) and nu(j) are joined by an edge iff there exists a vertical line segment connecting s(i) with s(j) without intersecting any other s(k). Several authors have studied visibility representations of graphs in the context of integrated circuit layout. In particular, visibility graphs were investigated in the context of VLSI layout compaction. Among other results on visibility graphs we provide answers to questions posed in a paper of Tamassia and Tollis; for example we show that deciding whether a given graph is a visibility graph is an NP-complete problem.
