Fast separation in a graph with an excluded minor [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2005
Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex $m$-edge graph with weighted vertices. A pair of vertex sets $A,B \subseteq V(G)$ is a $\frac{2}{3} - \textit{separation}$ of $\textit{order}$ $|A \cap B|$ if $A \cup B = V(G)$, there is no edge between $A \backslash B$ and $B ...

MINORS IN WEIGHTED GRAPHS [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Australian Mathematical Society, 2008
AbstractWe define the notion of minor for weighted graphs. We prove that with this minor relation, the set of weighted graphs is directed. We also prove that, given any two weights on a connected graph with the same total weight, we can transform one into the other using a sequence of edge subdivisions and edge contractions.

Small minors in dense graphs [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Combinatorics, 2012
A fundamental result in structural graph theory states that every graph with large average degree contains a large complete graph as a minor. We prove this result with the extra property that the minor is small with respect to the order of the whole graph.

Modularity of minor‐free graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, 2022
AbstractWe prove that a class of graphs with excluded minor and with the maximum degree of smaller order than the number of edges is maximally modular, that is, for every , the modularity of any graph in the class with sufficiently many edges is at least .

Graph minor

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper, we present three results: (1) Let G be a (k + 2)-connected non-(k - 3)-apex graph where k ≥ 2. If G contains three k-cliques, say L 1, L2, L3, such that |Li ∩ Lj| ≤ k - 2 (1 ≤ i \u3c j ≤ 3), then G contains a Kk +2 as a minor.

The Minor Crossing Number of Graphs with an Excluded Minor [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2008
The minor crossing number of a graph $G$ is the minimum crossing number of a graph that contains $G$ as a minor. It is proved that for every graph $H$ there is a constant $c$, such that every graph $G$ with no $H$-minor has minor crossing number at most $c|V(G)|$.

Reconfiguration of graph minors

open access: yesCoRR, 2018
Under the reconfiguration framework, we consider the various ways that a target graph $H$ is a {\em minor} of a host graph $G$, where a subgraph of $G$ can be transformed into $H$ by means of {\em edge contraction} (replacement of both endpoints of an edge by a new vertex adjacent to any vertex adjacent to either endpoint).

Upper Bounds on the Graph Minor Theorem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Lower bounds on the proof-theoretic strength of the graph minor theorem were found over 30 years ago by Friedman, Robertson and Seymour (Metamathematics of the graph minor theorem, pp 229–261, [4]), but upper bounds have always been elusive.

Stochastic minority on graphs

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2011
Cellular automata have been mainly studied on very regular graphs carrying the vertices (like lines or grids) and under synchronous dynamics (all vertices update simultaneously). In this paper, we study how the asynchronism and the graph act upon the dynamics of the classical Minority rule.

Testing first-order properties for subclasses of sparse graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a linear-time algorithm for deciding first-order (FO) properties in classes of graphs with bounded expansion, a notion recently introduced by Nešetřil and Ossona de Mendez.
