We prove that the crossing number of C5 x C, is 372, which is consistent with the general conjecture that the crossing number of C,, x C, is ( m -2)n, for 3 5 m 5 n.

Our main result is that a 1971 conjecture due to Paul Kainen is false. Kainen's conjecture implies that the genus 2 crossing number of K 9 is 3. We disprove the conjecture by showing that the actual value is 4. The method used is a new one in the study of crossing numbers, involving proof of the imp
We introduce a general framework to estimate the crossing number of a graph on a compact 2-manifold in terms of the crossing number of the complete graph of the same size on the same manifold. The bounds are tight within a constant multiplicative factor for many graphs, including hypercubes, some co
