A chapter in Thirty Essays on Geometric Graph Theory, 2013, pp 5-18 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The calculation of the rectilinear crossing number of complete graphs is an important open problem in combinatorial geometry, with important and fruitful connections to other classical problems. Our aim in this chapter is to survey the body of knowledge around this parameter. Mathematics Subject Classification (2010): 52C30, 52C10, 52C45, 05C62, 68R10, 60D05, 52A22
