This paper concerns the maximum genus orientable surface upon which a given graph cellularly embeds. Classical theorems of Xuong and Nebesk? give exact values for the maximum genus. The former is suited to constructing embeddings while the latter is suited to forbidding embeddings of larger genus. However, using either theorem alone requires an exhaustive search to establish the exact value. Herein we examine relative embeddings of graphs, where certain facial cycles and their orientations have…

Simple greedy 2-approximation algorithm for the maximum genus of a graph
• Mathematics

It is proved that removing pairs of adjacent edges from G arbitrarily while retaining connectedness leads to at least at least $\gamma_M(G)/2$ pairs of edges removed, which allows a greedy algorithm for the maximum genus of a graph to be described.
A Note on the Maximum Genus of Graphs with Diameter 4

Let G be a simple graph with diameter four,if G does not contain complete subgraph K3 of order three. We prove that the Betti deficient number of G, �(G) ≤ 2. i.e. the maximum genus of G, M(G) ≥ 1

This paper presents a conceptually easy dynamic programming approach to find a monotonically increasing sequence of the same length that best approximates it in the sense of minimizing the weighted sum of absolute values of the differences.

Finding a maximum-genus graph imbedding
• Mathematics
JACM
• 1988
Topological methods and a reduction to linear matroid parity are used to develop a polynomial-time algorithm to find a maximum-genus cellular imbedding, which seems to be the first im Bedding algorithm for which the running time is not exponential in the genus of the imbeding surface.

The Relative Maximum Genus of a Graph
A formula is presented for the maximum (orientable) genus of the surface on which a graph has a relative embedding with respect to a set of closed walks.

Lemma 3 of [1] makes a false assertion about the winding number w(P, IT). A counterexample to the lemma is obtained by choosing Px = (123), P2 = (654), and n = {{1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}}. Here w(P,, n)
