Abstract

The crossing number of a graph G is the least number of crossings of all the drawings of G in S.A graph is embeddable if we can draw it in S without crossings. In the plane those graphs are denoted planar. Therefore the crossing number of a graph is a generalization of the concept of non-planarity(embeddability).Finding a optimal drawing of a graph has applications in Very Large Scale Integration and in Graph Drawing.
