The crossing number of a graph $G$ in a surface $\Sigma$, denoted by $cr_{\Sigma}(G)$, is the minimum number of pairwise intersections of edges in a drawing of $G$ in $\Sigma$. Let $k$ be an integer satisfying $k\geq 3$, the generalized…
In this note we provide an improved upper bound on the biplanar crossing number of the 8-dimensional hypercube. The $k$-planar crossing number of a graph $cr_k(G)$ is the number of crossings required when every edge of $G$ must be drawn in…
The n-th crossing number of a graph G, denoted cr_n(G), is the minimum number of crossings in a drawing of G on an orientable surface of genus n. We prove that for every a>b>0, there exists a graph G for which cr_0(G) = a, cr_1(G) = b, and…
The k-planar graphs, which are (usually with small values of k such as 1, 2, 3) subject to recent intense research, admit a drawing in which edges are allowed to cross, but each one edge is allowed to carry at most k crossings. In recently…
The {\it crossing number} of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of pairwise intersections of edges in a drawing of $G$. In this paper, we study the crossing numbers of $K_{m}\times P_n$ and $K_{m}\times C_n$.
A "book with k pages" consists of a straight line (the "spine") and k half-planes (the "pages"), such that the boundary of each page is the spine. If a graph is drawn on a book with k pages in such a way that the vertices lie on the spine,…
The graph crossing number problem, cr(G)<=k, asks for a drawing of a graph G in the plane with at most k edge crossings. Although this problem is in general notoriously difficult, it is fixed- parameter tractable for the parameter k…
A drawing of a graph is {\em pseudolinear} if there is a pseudoline arrangement such that each pseudoline contains exactly one edge of the drawing. The {\em pseudolinear crossing number} of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of pairwise…
The study of nonplanar drawings of graphs with restricted crossing configurations is a well-established topic in graph drawing, often referred to as beyond-planar graph drawing. One of the most studied types of drawings in this area are the…
The crossing number of a graph is the minimum number of double points over all generic immersions of the graph into the plane. In this paper we investigate the behavior of crossing number under a graph transformation, called $\mathsf{\Delta…
It is well known that any graph admits a crossing-free straight-line drawing in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and that any planar graph admits the same even in $\mathbb{R}^2$. For a graph $G$ and $d \in \{2,3\}$, let $\rho^1_d(G)$ denote the smallest…
We study the \emph{geometric $k$-colored crossing number} of complete graphs $\overline{\overline{\text{cr}}}_k(K_n)$, which is the smallest number of monochromatic crossings in any $k$-edge colored straight-line drawing of $K_n$. We…
Let $P$ be a set of points in general position in the plane. Join all pairs of points in $P$ with straight line segments. The number of segment-crossings in such a drawing, denoted by $\crg(P)$, is the \emph{rectilinear crossing number} of…
The crossing number of a graph is the minimum number of crossings over all of its drawings on the plane. The Crossing Lemma, proved more than 40 years ago, is a tight lower bound on the crossing number of a graph in terms of the number of…
The concept of $k$-planarity is extensively studied in the context of Beyond Planarity. A graph is $k$-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane in which each edge is crossed at most $k$ times. The local crossing number of a graph is the…
We introduce the triple crossing number, a variation of crossing number, of a graph, which is the minimal number of crossing points in all drawings with only triple crossings of the graph. It is defined to be zero for a planar graph, and to…
A geometric graph, $\overline{G}$, is a graph drawn in the plane, with straight line edges and vertices in general position. A geometric homomorphism between two geometric graphs $\overline{G}$, $\overline{H}$ is a vertex map…
A graph is $1$-planar, if it can be drawn in the plane such that there is at most one crossing on every edge. It is known, that $1$-planar graphs have at most $4n-8$ edges. We prove the following odd-even generalization. If a graph can be…
We give an explicit extension of Spencer's result on the biplanar crossing number of the Erdos-Renyi random graph $G(n,p)$. In particular, we show that the k-planar crossing number of $G(n,p)$ is almost surely $\Omega((n^2p)^2)$. Along the…
The colouring number col(G) of a graph G is the smallest integer k for which there is an ordering of the vertices of G such that when removing the vertices of G in the specified order no vertex of degree more than k-1 in the remaining graph…
