## Abstract Let __Q__~__n__~ denote the n‐dimensional hypercube. In this paper we derive upper and lower bounds for the crossing number __v__(__Q__~__n__~), i.e., the minimum number of edge‐crossings in any planar drawing of __Q__~__n__~. The upper bound is close to a result conjectured by Eggleton
## Abstract It is known that for every integer __k__ ≥ 4, each __k__‐map graph with __n__ vertices has at most __kn__ − 2__k__ edges. Previously, it was open whether this bound is tight or not. We show that this bound is tight for __k__ = 4, 5. We also show that this bound is not tight for large en
