ON THE TIGHTNESS CONDITIONS FOR MAXIMAL PLANAR GRAPHS

  • Published : 1997.03.01

Abstract

We characterize the tight structure of a vertex-accumula-tion-free maximal planar graph with no separating triangles. Together with the result of Halin who gave an equivalent form for such graphs this yields that a tight structure always exists in every 4-connected maximal planar graph with one end.
