Thrackle

A thrackle is an embedding of a graph in the plane in which each edge is a Jordan arc and every pair of edges meet exactly once. Edges may either meet at a common endpoint, or, if they have no endpoints in common, at a point in their interiors. In the latter case, they must cross at their intersection point: the intersection must be transverse.
