## Abstract In this paper we deduce a necessary and sufficient condition for a line grah to have crossing number 1. In addition, we prove that the line graph of any nonplanar graph has crossing number greater than 2.
Let F = {F,, . . .} be a given class of forbidden graphs. A graph G is called F-saturated if no F, E F is a subgraph of G but the addition of an arbitrary new edge gives a forbidden subgraph. In this paper the minimal number of edges in F-saturated graphs is examined. General estimations are given a
## Abstract Jeager et al. introduced a concept of group connectivity as a generalization of nowhere zero flows and its dual concept group coloring, and conjectured that every 5โedge connected graph is Z~3~โconnected. For planar graphs, this is equivalent to that every planar graph with girth at lea
## Abstract ล irรกล constructed infinite families of __k__โcrossingโcritical graphs for every __k__โฉพ3 and Kochol constructed such families of simple graphs for every __k__โฉพ2. Richter and Thomassen argued that, for any given __k__โฉพ1 and __r__โฉพ6, there are only finitely many simple __k__โcrossingโcriti
