Approximating the Crossing Number of Toroidal Graphs
Abstract. CrossingNumber is one of the most challenging algorithmic problems in topological graph theory, with applications to graph drawing and VLSI layout. No polynomial time con...

New bounds on the barycenter heuristic for bipartite graph drawing
The barycenter heuristic is often used to solve the NP-hard two-layer edge crossing minimization problem. It is well-known that the barycenter heuristic can give solutions as bad a...

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...

Geometric drawings of Kn with few crossings
We give a new upper bound for the rectilinear crossing number cr(n) of the complete geometric graph Kn. We prove that cr(n) ≤ 0.380559 ¡n 4 ¢ + Θ(n3 ) by means of a new const...

Crossing Number 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 diffe...
