Few theorems are known about planar graphs. For, example, Kuratowski proved that a graph is planar if and only if it has no subgraph homeomorphic to K₅ or K₃,₃. It has remained as a direct criterion for determining whether a graph is planar or not. Powerful as the theorem is, it is not always easy...
