Abstract

We analyse classes of planar graphs with respect to various properties such as polynomial-time solvability of the dominating set problem or boundedness of the tree-width. A helpful tool to address this question is the notion of boundary classes. The main result of the paper is that for many important properties there are exactly two boundary classes of planar graphs.
