Abstract

A systematic study is carried out focusing on the relationship between the topology of a graph and the metric distortion incurred when the graph is embedded into l1 space. Explicit constant-distortion embeddings of all series-parallel graphs, and all graphs with bounded Euler number are derived. Further, a constant-distortion embedding of outerplanar graphs into the restricted class of l1-metrics known as 'dominating tree metrics' is shown.
