Abstract
We have discussed planar graphs, their characterization, testing and generation of codes. We have shown that the codes solve the isomorphism and automorphism group problems. Since matroids give a complete theory of duality for graphs, it is to be expected that they yield insights and characterizations for planar graphs. Conversely, a fertile field of research is to generalize known conditions on planar graphs to realizability conditions on matroids. Tutte has provided one such theorem and Welsh another. The wheel algorithm for testing planarity that we discussed yields a third characterization of matroids.
