我们解决以下问题:在平面上用直线弧画一个n个顶点的圈(或一个度都是2的图),可以有多少个交点?给出了一个完整的答案;即,如果n是奇数,则交叉数可以是除n(n-3)/2 - 1之外的任何数,直到n(n-3)/2。对于n个偶数,一个圈中的交叉数可以是n(n−4)/2+1以内的任何整数;一般的二价偶数图可以达到n(2n−7)/4以内的任何整数作为交叉数。
We address the following question: In drawing a cycle on n vertices (or a graph all of whose degrees are 2) in the plane with straight line arcs, how many crossings can there be? A complete answer is given; namely, if n is odd, the number of crossings can be anything up to n(n−3)/2 except n(n−3)/2−1. For n even, the number of crossings in one cycle can be any integer up to n(n−4)/2+1; general bivalent even graphs can achieve any integer up to n(2n−7)/4 as the number of crossings.
