The Straight-Line RAC Drawing Problem is NP-Hard
Vol. 16, no. 2, pp. 569-597, 2012. Regular paper.
Abstract A RAC drawing of a graph is a polyline drawing in which every pair of crossing edges intersects at right angle. In this paper, we focus on straight-line RAC drawings and demonstrate an infinite class of graphs with unique RAC combinatorial embedding. We employ members of this class in order to show that it is NP-hard to decide whether a graph admits a straight-line RAC drawing.
