Abstract

The Plane Diameter Completion problem asks, given a plane graph G and a positive integer d, if it is a spanning subgraph of a plane graph H that has diameter at most d. We examine two variants of this problem where the input comes with another parameter κ. In the first variant, called BPDC, κ upper bounds the total number of edges to be added and in the second, called BFPDC, κ upper bounds the number of additional edges per face. We prove that both problems are NP-complete, the first even for 3-connected graphs of face-degree at most 4 and the second even when κ = 1 on 3-connected graphs of face-degree at most 5. In this paper we give parameterized algorithms for both problems that run in O(n3) + 22O((κd)2 log d) · n steps.
