Abstract

The paper attempts to classify 5-regular graphs according to their crossing numbers and with given number of vertices. In particular, it is shown that there exist no 5-regular graphs on 12 vertices with crossing number one. This together with a result in [2] imply that the minimum number of vertices in a 5-regular graph with girth three and crossing number one is 14.
