چکیده

The rectilinear crossing number of a graph G is the minimum number of edge crossings that can occur in any drawing of G in which the edges are straight line segments and no three vertices are collinear. This number has been known for G = Kn if n ≤ 9. Using a combinatorial argument we show that for n = 10 the number is 62.

Toward the rectilinear crossing number of Kn: new drawings, upper bounds, and asymptotics

Scheinerman and Wilf [SW94] assert that “an important open problem in the study of graph embeddings is to determine the rectilinear crossing number of the complete graph Kn.” A rectilinear drawing of Kn is an arrangement of n vertices in the plane, every pair of which is connected by an edge that is a line segment. We assume that no three vertices are collinear, and that no three edges intersec...

Mathematical Programming Formulation of Rectilinear Crossing Minimization

In a rectilinear drawing of a simple graph G each vertex is mapped to a distinct point in the plane and each edge is represented by a straight-line segment with appropriate ends. The goal of rectilinear crossing minimization is to find a rectilinear drawing of G with as few edge crossings as possible. A new approach to rectilinear crossing minimization is presented including a formulation of th...

We introduce the Orchard crossing number, which is defined in a similar way to the well-known rectilinear crossing number. We compute the Orchard crossing number for some simple families of graphs. We also prove some properties of this crossing number. Moreover, we define a variant of this crossing number which is tightly connected to the rectilinear crossing number, and compute it for some sim...

The Maximum of the Maximum Rectilinear Crossing Numbers of d-Regular Graphs of Order n

We extend known results regarding the maximum rectilinear crossing number of the cycle graph (Cn) and the complete graph (Kn) to the class of general d-regular graphs Rn,d. We present the generalized star drawings of the d-regular graphs Sn,d of order n where n + d ≡ 1 (mod 2) and prove that they maximize the maximum rectilinear crossing numbers. A star-like drawing of Sn,d for n ≡ d ≡ 0 (mod 2...
