Asymmetric two-colourings of graphs in S 3

We prove that for any non-planar graph H , we can choose a two-colouring G of H such that G is intrinsically chiral, and if H is 3-connected and is not K 3,3 or K 5 , then G is intrinsically asymmetric. No such asymmetric two-colouring is possible for K 3,3 or K 5 .
