Summary :

In a convex grid drawing of a plane graph, all edges are drawn as straight-line segments without any edge-intersection, all vertices are put on grid points and all facial cycles are drawn as convex polygons. A plane graph G has a convex drawing if and only if G is internally triconnected, and an internally triconnected plane graph G has a convex grid drawing on an (n-1) × (n-1) grid if either G is triconnected or the triconnected component decomposition tree T(G) of G has two or three leaves, where n is the number of vertices in G. An internally triconnected plane graph G has a convex grid drawing on a 2n × 2n grid if T(G) has exactly four leaves. Furthermore, an internally triconnected plane graph G has a convex grid drawing on a 20n × 16n grid if T(G) has exactly five leaves. In this paper, we show that an internally triconnected plane graph G has a convex grid drawing on a 10n × 5n grid if T(G) has exactly five leaves. We also present a linear-time algorithm to find such a drawing.
