Triple Crossing Numbers of Graphs

We introduce the triple crossing number,a variation of the crossing number,of a graph,which is the minimal number of crossing points in all drawings of the graph with only triple crossings.It is defined to be zero for planar graphs,and to be infinite for non-planar graphs which do not admit a drawing with only triple crossings.In this paper,we determine the triple crossing numbers for all complete multipartite graphs which include all complete graphs.

On the Nonembeddability and Crossing Numbers of Some Kleinical Polyhedral Maps on the Torus

We define a family of graph bundles over cycles which embed naturally on the Klein bottle and which are analogous to the celebrated toroidal grid graphs (cartesian product of a cycle with a cycle). We give a criterion for a polyhedral map on the Klein bottle to fail to embed on the torus, and use this to calculate toroidal crossing numbers of two one-parameter infinite families of our Kleinical graphs.Mathematics Subject Classification (1991): 05C10     

A Lower Bound for the Rectilinear Crossing Number

The Crossing Number of C(mk;{1, k})

Calculating the crossing number of a given graph is, in general, an elusive problem. Garey and Johnson have proved that the problem of determining the crossing number of an arbitrary graph is NP-complete. The crossing number of a network(graph) is closely related to the minimum layout area required for the implementation of a VLSI circuit for that network. With this important application in mind, it makes most sense to analyze the the crossing number of graphs with good interconnection properties, such as the circulant graphs. In this paper we study the crossing number of the circulant graph C(mk;{1,k}) for m3, k3, give an upper bound of cr(C(mk;{1,k})), and prove that cr(C(3k;{1,k}))=k.Research supported by Chinese Natural Science Foundation

K5×Sn的交叉数

By connecting the 5 vertices of K5 to other n vertices, we obtain a special family of graph denoted by Hn. This paper proves that the crossing number of Hn is Z(5, n) +2n+[n/2] 1, and the crossing number of Cartesian products of K5 with star Sn is Z(5, n) + 5n + [n/2]+1.

On Crossing Numbers of Complete Tripartite and Balanced Complete Multipartite Graphs

The crossing number cr(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of crossings in a drawing of G in the plane with no more than two edges intersecting at any point that is not a vertex. The rectilinear crossing number of G is the minimum number of crossings in a such drawing of G with edges as straight line segments. Zarankiewicz proved in 1952 that . We generalize the upper bound to and prove . We also show that for n large enough, and , with the tighter rectilinear lower bound established through the use of flag algebras. A complete multipartite graph is balanced if the partite sets all have the same cardinality. We study asymptotic behavior of the crossing number of the balanced complete r‐partite graph. Richter and Thomassen proved in 1997 that the limit as of over the maximum number of crossings in a drawing of exists and is at most . We define and show that for a fixed r and the balanced complete r‐partite graph, is an upper bound to the limit superior of the crossing number divided by the maximum number of crossings in a drawing.

五阶图与星图的笛卡尔积交叉数

In this paper, we compute the crossing number of a specific graph Hn, and then by contraction, we obtain the conclusion that cr（G13 × Sn） = 4[n/2] [n-1/2]＋[n/2] . The result fills up the blank of the crossing numbers of Cartesian products of stars with all 5-vertex graphs presented by Marian Klesc.     

Extremal problems on triangle areas in two and three dimensions

The study of extremal problems on triangle areas was initiated in a series of papers by Erd?s and Purdy in the early 1970s. In this paper we present new results on such problems, concerning the number of triangles of the same area that are spanned by finite point sets in the plane and in 3-space, and the number of distinct areas determined by the triangles.In the plane, our main result is an O(n44/19)=O(n^2.3158) upper bound on the number of unit-area triangles spanned by n points, which is the first breakthrough improving the classical bound of O(n7/3) from 1992. We also make progress in a number of important special cases. We show that: (i) For points in convex position, there exist n-element point sets that span Ω(nlogn) triangles of unit area. (ii) The number of triangles of minimum (nonzero) area determined by n points is at most ; there exist n-element point sets (for arbitrarily large n) that span (6/π²−o(1))n² minimum-area triangles. (iii) The number of acute triangles of minimum area determined by n points is O(n); this is asymptotically tight. (iv) For n points in convex position, the number of triangles of minimum area is O(n); this is asymptotically tight. (v) If no three points are allowed to be collinear, there are n-element point sets that span Ω(nlogn) minimum-area triangles (in contrast to (ii), where collinearities are allowed and a quadratic lower bound holds).In 3-space we prove an O(n17/7β(n))=O(n^2.4286) upper bound on the number of unit-area triangles spanned by n points, where β(n) is an extremely slowly growing function related to the inverse Ackermann function. The best previous bound, O(n8/3), is an old result of Erd?s and Purdy from 1971. We further show, for point sets in 3-space: (i) The number of minimum nonzero area triangles is at most n²+O(n), and this is worst-case optimal, up to a constant factor. (ii) There are n-element point sets that span Ω(n4/3) triangles of maximum area, all incident to a common point. In any n-element point set, the maximum number of maximum-area triangles incident to a common point is O(n4/3+ε), for any ε>0. (iii) Every set of n points, not all on a line, determines at least Ω(n2/3/β(n)) triangles of distinct areas, which share a common side.

The Crossing Number of Cartesian Products of Complete Bipartite Graphs K 2, m with Paths P n

Most results on the crossing number of a graph focus on the special graphs, such as Cartesian products of small graphs with paths P_n, cycles C_n or stars S_n. In this paper, we extend the results to Cartesian products of complete bipartite graphs K_2,m with paths P_n for arbitrary m ≥ 2 and n ≥ 1.

The Same Upper Bound for Both: The 2‐page and the Rectilinear Crossing Numbers of the n‐Cube

We present two main results: a 2‐page and a rectilinear drawing of the n‐dimensional cube . Both drawings have the same number of crossings, even though they are given by different constructions. The first improves the current best general 2‐page drawing, while the second is the first nontrivial rectilinear drawing of .
