It was proved by [Garey and Johnson, 1983] that computing the crossing number of a graph is an NP-hard problem. Their reduction, however, used parallel edges and vertices of very h...
A graph is near-planar if it can be obtained from a planar graph by adding an edge. We show that it is NP-hard to compute the crossing number of near-planar graphs. The main idea ...
We show that computing the crossing number and the odd crossing number of a graph with a given rotation system is NP-complete. As a consequence we can show that many of the well-k...

We show that computing the crossing number of a graph with a given rotation system is NP-complete. This result leads to a new and much simpler proof of Hlinˇen´y’s result, tha...

In an orthogonal drawing of a planar graph G, each vertex is drawn as a point, each edge is drawn as a sequence of alternate horizontal and vertical line segments, and any two edge...
