Beyond planar graphs are non-planar graphs that admit a drawing with
topological constraints such as specific types of crossings, or with some
forbidden crossing patterns. Relevant research about beyond planar graphs,
deals with their combinatorial structures (e.g., book thickness, queue number),
their topology (e.g., simultaneous embeddability, gap planarity,
quasi-quasiplanarity), their geometric representations (e.g., representations
on few segments or arcs), and applications (e.g., manipulation of graph
drawings by untangling operations).
In the graph drawing community beyond planar graphs have been intensly
studied in the last 15 years.
