    • 2-crossing critical graphs with a V8 minor 

      Austin, Beth Ann (University of Waterloo, 2012-01-17)
      The crossing number of a graph is the minimum number of pairwise crossings of edges among all planar drawings of the graph. A graph G is k-crossing critical if it has crossing number k and any proper subgraph of G has a ...
    • 2-Semilattices: Residual Properties and Applications to the Constraint Satisfaction Problem 

      Payne, Ian (University of Waterloo, 2017-08-22)
      Semilattices are algebras known to have an important connection to partially ordered sets. In particular, if a partially ordered set $(A,\leq)$ has greatest lower bounds, a semilattice $(A;\wedge)$ can be associated to the ...
