## Abstract Let __G__ be a connected graph which is projectiveβplanar but is not planar. It will be shown that __G__ can be embedded in the projective plane so that it has only even faces if and only if either __G__ is bipartite or its canonical bipartite covering is planar and that such an embeddi

An edge or face of an embedded graph is light if the sum of the degrees of the vertices incident with it is small. This paper parallelizes four inequalities on the number of light edges and light triangles from the plane to the projective plane. Each of the four inequalities is shown to be the best
## Abstract We give a detailed algebraic characterization of when a graph __G__ can be imbedded in the projective plane. The characterization is in terms of the existence of a dual graph __G__\* on the same edge set as __G__, which satisfies algebraic conditions inspired by homology groups and inte
It will be shown that the number of equivalence classes of embeddings of a 3-connected nonplanar graph into a projective plane coincides with the number of isomorphism classes of planar double coverings of the graph and a combinatorial method to determine the number will be developed.
A graph G is uniquelyembeddable in a surface f 2 if for any two embeddings f,,f2 : G + f 2 , there exists an isomorphism u : G + G and a homeo- admits an embedding f : G + F2 such that for any isomorphism (T : G + G, there is a homeomorphism h : F 2 f 2 with h . f = f . u. It will be shown that if
