Crossing Numbers of Graphs (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The first book devoted to the crossing number, an increasingly popular object of study with surprising connections. The field has matured into a large body of work, which includes identifiable core results and techniques. The book presents a wide variety of ideas and techniques in topological graph theory, discrete geometry, and computer science.
