Odd Crossing Number and Crossing Number Are Not the Same
The crossing number of a graph is the minimum number of edge intersections in a plane drawing of a graph, where each intersection is counted separately. If instead we count the number of pairs of edges that intersect an odd number of times, we obtain the odd crossing number. We show that there is a graph for which these two concepts differ, answering a well-known open question on crossing numbe...

The crossing number of a graph is the minimum number of edge intersections in a plane drawing of a graph, where each intersection is counted separately. If instead we count the number of pairs of edges that intersect an odd number of times, we obtain the odd crossing number. We show that there is a graph for which these two concepts differ, answering a well-known open question on crossing numbe...
متن کاملNote on the Pair-Crossing Number and the Odd-Crossing Number
The crossing number cr(G) of a graph G is the minimum possible number of edge-crossings in a drawing of G, the pair-crossing number pcr(G) is the minimum possible number of crossing pairs of edges in a drawing of G, and the odd-crossing number ocr(G) is the minimum number of pairs of edges that cross an odd number of times. Clearly, ocr(G) ≤ pcr(G) ≤ cr(G). We construct graphs with 0.855 · pcr(...
متن کاملCrossing number, pair-crossing number, and expansion
The crossing number crðGÞ of a graph G is the minimum possible number of edge crossings in a drawing of G in the plane, while the pair-crossing number pcrðGÞ is the smallest number of pairs of edges that cross in a drawing of G in the plane. While crðGÞXpcrðGÞ holds trivially, it is not known whether a strict inequality can ever occur (this question was raised by Mohar and Pach and Tóth). We ai...
متن کاملAnalogies between the crossing number and the tangle crossing number
Tanglegrams are special graphs that consist of a pair of rooted binary trees with the same number of leaves, and a perfect matching between the two leaf-sets. These objects are of use in phylogenetics and are represented with straightline drawings where the leaves of the two plane binary trees are on two parallel lines and only the matching edges can cross. The tangle crossing number of a tangl...
