A new scheme for drawing hypergraphs

Abstract

The aim of this short communication is to present a new scheme for drawing hypergraphs (and graphs, of course), which though not explicitly designed for hypergraphs has several advantages over the usual subset and edge standards. The most striking of these is that the drawing process in this scheme is O(v·e) in the number of vertices and edges.
