Jul 14, 2021 at 7:26 comment added ben macintosh Thanks @RolandBacher yes I think the invariant introduced in Holst09 (related to the $\mu$-invariant) is closest to what I'm looking for - it seems to generalise the Hanani–Tutte rather Mac Lane characterisation of planarity.
Jul 12, 2021 at 15:51 comment added Roland Bacher Geometric conditions and reformulations were given by H. van der Holst (see the Wikipedia on $\mu$ for exact refences) if I am not mistaken, The $\mu$-invariant has a combinatorial description (found by L. Laszlo and Schrijver) if I remember correctly.
Jul 12, 2021 at 15:36 comment added Roland Bacher Graphs are linklessly embeddable if and only if their $\mu$-invariant of Colin de Verdi`ere is at most $4$. See the pertaining Wikipedia page.
Jul 12, 2021 at 15:30 comment added Arnaud Doesn't Mac Lane's condition work the other way? I.e., a graph is non-planar if and only if all of its cycles bases have an edge contained in more than 2 cycles
