Planar Decompositions and the Crossing Number of Graphs with an Excluded Minor
Tree decompositions of graphs are of fundamental importance in structural and algorithmic graph theory. Planar decompositions generalise tree decompositions by allowing an arbitrar...

Crossing Number Is Hard for Cubic Graphs
It was proved by [Garey and Johnson, 1983] that computing the crossing number of a graph is an NP-hard problem. Their reduction, however, used parallel edges and vertices of very h...

Computing crossing numbers in quadratic time
We show that for every fixed ? there is a quadratic time algorithm that decides whether a given graph has crossing number at most and, if this is the case, computes a drawing of t...

Approximating the Crossing Number of Graphs Embeddable in Any Orientable Surface
The crossing number of a graph is the least number of pairwise edge crossings in a drawing of the graph in the plane. We provide an O(n log n) time constant factor approximation al...

Crossing and Weighted Crossing Number of Near-Planar Graphs
A nonplanar graph G is near-planar if it contains an edge e such that G − e is planar. The problem of determining the crossing number of a near-planar graph is exhibited from di...
