Rotation systems and simple drawings in surfaces
Abstract
Every simple drawing of a graph in the plane naturally induces a rotation system, but it is easy to exhibit a rotation system that does not arise from a simple drawing in the plane. We extend this to all surfaces: for every fixed surface , there is a rotation system that does not arise from a simple drawing in .
