Title: Intersections and Faces of Line Segment Graphs
Abstract: We can derive sharp
upper and lower bounds on the number of intersection points and closed
regions that can occur in sets of line segments with certain structure,
in terms of the number of segments. We will consider sets of segments
whose underlying planar graphs are Halin graphs, cactus graphs, maximal
planar graphs, and triangle-free planar graphs.
