We show that if a graph has maximum degree d and crossing number k , its rectilinear crossing number is at most O ( dk 2 ). Hence for graphs of bounded degree, the crossing number and the rectilinear crossing number are bounded as functions of one another. We also obtain a generalization of Tutte's theorem on convex embeddings of 3‐connected plane graphs. © 1929 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
