Abstract

In this paper, we present a dynamic algorithm that checks if a single-source embedded digraph is upward planar in the presence of edge insertions and edge deletions. Let G φ be an upward planar single-source embedded digraph and let G′ φ′ be a single-source embedded digraph obtained by updating G φ . We show that the upward planarity of G′ φ′ can be checked in O(logn) amortized time when the external face is fixed.
