摘要
In a planar L-drawing of a directed graph (digraph) each edge e is represented as a polyline composed of a vertical segment starting at the tail of e and a horizontal segment ending at the head of e. Distinct edges may overlap, but not cross. Our main focus is on bimodal graphs, i.e., digraphs admitting a planar embedding in which the incoming and outgoing edges around each vertex are contiguous. We show that every plane bimodal graph without 2-cycles admits a planar L-drawing. This includes the class of upward-plane graphs. Bimodal graphs with 2-cycles admit a planar L-drawing if the underlying undirected graph with merged 2-cycles is a planar 3-tree. Finally, outerplanar digraphs admit a planar L-drawing – although they do not always have a bimodal embedding – but not necessarily with an outerplanar embedding. © 2022, Brown University.
