摘要
We consider the (optimal) layout of graphs with fixed boundary (i. e. , graphs, where only the nodes of a given cycle of the graph have fixed positions in the plane). The investigated layouts are straight line embeddings in a continuous part of the plane; the cost of a layout is calculated with help of very general cost functions including the pth power of the usual Euclidean distance metric for p equals 2,3,. . . (for short, l//p-metric). For a large class of graphs, which, for example, occur in chip layout problems as the abstract structure of switching circuits, we show the existence and uniqueness of the optimal layout.
