It has been long conjectured that the crossing number of C m  ×  C n is ( m −2) n , for all m , n such that n  ≥  m  ≥  3. In this paper, it is shown that if n  ≥  m ( m  + 1) and m  ≥  3, then this conjecture holds. That is, the crossing number of C m  ×  C n is as conjectured for all but finitely many n , for each m . The proof is largely based on techniques from the theory of arrangements, introduced by Adamsson and further developed by Adamsson and Richter. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
