Abstract

It is shown that if a planar straight line graph (Pslg) with n vertices in general position in the plane can be augmented to a 3-edge-connected Pslg, then 2n 驴 2 new edges are enough for the augmentation. This bound is tight: there are Pslgs with n 驴 4 vertices such that any augmentation to a 3-edge-connected Pslg requires 2n 驴 2 new edges.
