Title: Area-Universality
Abstract: Cartograms are used to visualize properties of countries.
The figure displays a cartogram of the world where the size of a country is proportional to its population in 2018.
In this talk, we investigate natural abstraction of cartograms. In particular, we study properties of plane graphs with given face areas.
