An Application of Well-Orderly Trees in Graph Drawing

Well-orderly trees seem to have the potential of becoming a powerful technique capable of deriving new results in graph encoding, graph enumeration and graph generation [3, 4]. In this paper, we reduce the height of the visibility representation of plane graphs from 5n/6 to (4n–1)/5, by using well-orderly trees.
