Is it possible that every edge in a 1-planar drawing with minimum number of crossings is crossed?
A graph is 1-planar is it has drawing in the plane so that each edge is crossed at most once. Here we also assume the drawing satisfies (1) no edge is self-crossed; (2) no two adjacent edges are ...

What is the crossing number of dodecahedron with a copy of $K_5$ inside each face
Suppose we are given a regular dodecahedron. Then we add five crossed edges inside each of its faces (actually, inside each face it is a copy of $K_5$). It is clear that this drawing has 60 crossings. ...

What is the crossing number of cube with a pair of crossing edges inside each face
Suppose we are given a cube and we add a pair of crossing edges inside each of its faces. It is clear that this drawing has 6 crossings. My question is whether such a graph has crossing number 6? How ...

Looking for examples showing that the crossing number may not be realized by the drawings with local crossing number
The crossing number $cr(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the lowest number of edge crossings of a plane drawing of the graph $G$. The local crossing number of a drawing of a graph is the largest number of ...

Is there any maximal 1-planar or 2-planar graph that is not 3-connected
A graph is $k$-planar if it can be drawn in the plane so that each edge is crossed at most $k$ times. A $k$-planar graph $G$ is maximal if $G+uv$ is not $k$-planar for any non-adjacent vertices $u,v\...

Counting edges in embeddable CW-complexes in R^3
Using Euler's formula ($V-E+F = 2$ where $V$, $E$ and $F$ are the number of vertices, edges and faces), we can easily count the number of edges in maximal graphs that are embeddable in plane: 3n-6. I ...
