Description of the research topic:

A graph and its topological embedding in the plane is a graph drawing. What is the maximum number of edges a graph drawing can have if each edge is allowed to have at most k intersection points, and no more edges can be added with this property? Is there a relationship between the chromatic number and the crossing number (the total number of intersections obtained when the graph is drawn in the plane) of a graph? We study questions of this type.
