2 (a) Draw the graphs K5,2 and K5,3 using the standard arrangement.

For example, K5,2 should have a row of 5 vertices above a row of 2 vertices, and the edges connect each vertex in the top row to each vertex in the bottom row.

(b) Draw K5,2 as a plane graph, i.e., with no edges crossing.

(c) Complete the following table, recalling E is the number of edges in a graph and V is the number of vertices. (Strictly speaking, this is an incorrect use of notation as E and V are sets, and we should use |E| and |V | to indicate the number of edges and vertices.)

(d) Carefully prove K5,3 is nonplanar using Kuratowski’s Theorem.

(e) Carefully prove K5,3 is nonplanar using Theorem 4.4.5.

3. Number the functions 1 → 5 from slowest to fastest, for long term growth.

b)The graph K5 is non-planar. Proof. let us assume that K5 is planar. Let the vertices of K5 be denoted by 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Then, in any planar drawing of K5, the cycle [123451], of K5, must appear as a cycle. Let us draw it in the form of a pentagon. Then the edge {1, 4} will either lie completely inside the pentagon or completely outside it. Without loss of generality, let us assume that the edge {1, 4} lies completely inside the pentagon. Therefore, both the edges {2, 5} and {3, 5} will lie completely outside the pentagon (or else they will intersect the edge {1, 4}). Now, the edges {1, 3} and {2, 4}. If {1, 3} is drawn inside the pentagon than the edge {2, 4} cannot be drawn without intersecting either the edge {1, 3} or the edge {3, 5}. A similar argument is valid if the edge {2, 4} is drawn inside the pentagon.

c) E= v(v-1)/2

V E 3V-6 2V-4
K5,2 7 21 15 10
K5,3 8 28 18 12

d)we have that a planar graph must satisfy e ≤ 3v − 6. Note that for K5,3, e = 28 and v = 8. Since 28 is not less than equal to 18, it must be that K5 is not planar.
