Geometric graphs (topological graphs) are graphs drawn in the plane with possibly crossing straight-line edges (resp., curvilinear edges). Starting with a problem of Heinz Hopf and Erika Pannwitz from 1934 and a seminal paper of Paul Erdős from 1946, we give a biased survey of Turán-type questions in the theory of geometric and topological graphs. What is the maximum number of edges that a geometric or topological graph of
n
vertices can have if it contains no forbidden subconfiguration of a certain type? We put special emphasis on open problems raised by Erdős or directly motivated by his work.
