Abstract

The Plane Subgraph (resp. Topological Minor) Completion problem asks, given a (possibly disconnected) plane (multi)graph T and a connected plane (multi)graph Δ, whether it is possible to add edges in T without violating the planarity of its embedding so that it contains some subgraph (resp. Topological minor) that is topologically isomorphic to Δ. We give FPT algorithms that solve both problems in f(E(Δ)) E(Δ)2 steps. Moreover, for the Plane Subgraph Completion problem we show that f(k) = 2O(k log k).
