Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Key Terms: Planar Graph—A graph is planar if it can be drawn in such a way that edges intersect only at vertices. Bipartite Graph Subgraph Complement of a Graph
3
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Planar Graph Example: A B C D AC intersects BD.
4
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Planar Graph Example: A B C D AC intersects BD. But we can redraw the graph so that they don’t intersect:

Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Planar Graph Example: A B C D A B D C
6
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Planar Graph Example: E A B C D Can you redraw this graph with edges intersecting only at vertices?
7
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Planar Graph Example: Any planar graph has a maximum chromatic number of four. If a graph has chromatic number greater than four, it is not planar.
8
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Planar Graph Example: E A B C D Note that this is a K5 graph, which is not planar. This means we cannot draw a map with five countries that all border each other.

Planar Graph Example: Now do problems 1-4 on pp
10
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Key Terms: Planar Graph Bipartite Graph: The vertices of a bipartite graph can be divided into two parts, or sets, such that each edge contains one vertex from each set. Subgraph Complement of a Graph
11
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Bipartite Graph Example: A The vertices of this graph can be divided into two distinct sets: (chromatic number = 2) B C D E
12
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Bipartite Graph Example: A The vertices of this graph can be divided into two distinct sets: (chromatic number = 2) B C {A, C, E} {B, D} D E
13
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Key Terms: Planar Graph Bipartite Graph Subgraph: a portion of a graph—some of the vertices and edges Complement of a Graph
14
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Subgraph Example: The maroon graph is a subgraph of the entire graph.
15
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Subgraph Example: Now do problems 5-6 on p. 218.
16
Sec. 5.1: Planarity & Coloring
Key Terms: Planar Graph Bipartite Graph Subgraph Complement of a Graph: Any vertices that are adjacent in a graph are not adjacent in its complement, and vice-versa.
