Graph theoretical questions with a topological flavour. For example, graphs on surfaces, spatial embeddings, and geometric graphs. Use the graph-drawing tag for questions specific to graph drawing (e.g. crossing numbers).

Do there exist sparse graphs with large crossing number?
The complete bipartite graph $K_{3,n}$ has 3n edges and crossing number $cn^2$.

Why are planar graphs so exceptional?
Planar graphs answer many important questions in graph structure theory.
Example 1. H-minor-free graphs have bounded treewidth if and only if H is planar.
Example 2. The set of graphs contractible …

Embedding planar graphs into the grid
There is a huge literature on this topic. Search for "orthogonal graph drawing". The best possible area bound is $O(n^2)$.

Let $G$ be a graph of genus $g$. Is the number of (non necessarily disjoint) 5-clique subgra...
Say $\gamma(G)$ is the genus of a graph $G$. If $G$ has components $G_1,\dots,G_c$ then $\gamma(G)=\sum_{i=1}^c \gamma(G_i)$. This property is called the additivity of genus (and much stronger results …
