Given a graph H, a graph is H-free if it does not contain H as a subgraph. We continue to study the topic of "extremal" planar graphs, that is, how many edges can an H-free planar graph on n vertices have? We define ex P (n, H) to be the maximum number of edges in an H-free planar graph on n vertices. We first obtain several sufficient conditions on H which yield ex P (n, H) = 3n − 6 for all n ≥ |V (H)|. We discover that the chromatic number of H does not play a role, as in the celebrated Erdős-Stone Theorem. We then completely determine ex P (n, H) when H is a wheel or a star. Finally, we examine the case when H is a (t, r)-fan, that is, H is isomorphic to K 1 + tK r−1 , where t ≥ 2 and r ≥ 3 are integers. However, determining ex P (n, H), when H is a planar subcubic graph, remains wide open.
