Abstract
We give a detailed algebraic characterization of when a graph G can be imbedded in the projective plane. The characterization is in terms of the existence of a dual graph G∗ on the same edge set as G which satisfies algebraic conditions inspired by homology groups and intersection products in homology groups.
