Samenvatting
A drawing of a graph in the plane is even if nonadjacent edges have an even number of intersections. Hanani’s theorem characterizes planar graphs as those graphs that have an even drawing. In this paper we present an algebraic characterization of graphs that have an even drawing. Together with Hanani’s theorem this yields an algebraic characterization of planar graphs. We will also present algebraic characterizations of subgraphs of paths, and of outerplanar graphs.
