Structure and Independence in Hyperbolic Uniform Disk Graphs
arxiv(2024)
摘要
We consider intersection graphs of disks of radius r in the hyperbolic plane. Unlike the Euclidean setting, these graph classes are different for different values of r, where very small r corresponds to an almost-Euclidean setting and r ∈Ω(log n) corresponds to a firmly hyperbolic setting. We observe that larger values of r create simpler graph classes, at least in terms of separators and the computational complexity of the Independent Set problem. First, we show that intersection graphs of disks of radius r in the hyperbolic plane can be separated with 𝒪((1+1/r)log n) cliques in a balanced manner. Our second structural insight concerns Delaunay complexes in the hyperbolic plane and may be of independent interest. We show that for any set S of n points with pairwise distance at least 2r in the hyperbolic plane the corresponding Delaunay complex has outerplanarity 1+𝒪(log n/r), which implies a similar bound on the balanced separators and treewidth of such Delaunay complexes. Using this outerplanarity (and treewidth) bound we prove that Independent Set can be solved in n^𝒪(1+log n/r) time. The algorithm is based on dynamic programming on some unknown sphere cut decomposition that is based on the solution. The resulting algorithm is a far-reaching generalization of a result of Kisfaludi-Bak (SODA 2020), and it is tight under the Exponential Time Hypothesis. In particular, Independent Set is polynomial-time solvable in the firmly hyperbolic setting of r∈Ω(log n). Finally, in the case when the disks have ply (depth) at most ℓ, we give a PTAS for Maximum Independent Set that has only quasi-polynomial dependence on 1/ε and ℓ. Our PTAS is a further generalization of our exact algorithm.
