Nodally 3-connected planar graphs and convex combination mappings
@inproceedings{Dunlaing2007Nodally3P, title={Nodally 3-connected planar graphs and convex combination mappings}, author={Colm O. Dunlaing}, year={2007} }
A barycentric mapping of a planar graph is a plane embedding in which every internal vertex is the average of its neighbours. A celebrated result of Tutte’s [16] is that if a planar graph is nodally 3-connected then such a mapping is an embedding. Floater generalised this result to convex combination mappings in which every internal vertex is a proper weighted average of its neighbours. He also generalised the result to all triangulated planar graphs. This has applications in numerical analysis… Expand
