Utility Graph

The utility problem asks, ``Can a Planar Graph be constructed from each of three nodes (`house owners') to each ofthree other nodes (`wells')?'' The answer is no, and the proof can be effected using the Jordan Curve Theorem,while a more general result encompassing this one is the Kuratowski Reduction Theorem. The utility graph is the graph showing the relationships described above. It is identical to the Thomsen Graph and, in the moreformal parlance of Graph Theory, is known as the Complete Bipartite Graph .
