An Optimal Algorithm for Product Structure in Planar Graphs

Abstract

The Product Structure Theorem for planar graphs (Dujmović et al. JACM, 67(4):22) states that any planar graph is contained in the strong product of a planar 3-tree, a path, and a 3-cycle. We give a simple linear-time algorithm for finding this decomposition as well as several related decompositions. This improves on the previous O(nlog n) time algorithm (Morin. Algorithmica, 85(5):1544-1558).
