Improved Bounds for the Excluded-Minor Approximation of Treedepth [PDF]
Treedepth, a more restrictive graph width parameter than treewidth and pathwidth, plays a major role in the theory of sparse graph classes. We show that there exists a constant $C$ such that for every positive integers $a,b$ and a graph $G$, if the treedepth of $G$ is at least $Cab$, then the treewidth of $G$ is at least $a$ or $G$ contains a subcubic (

Treedepth vs Circumference [PDF]
The circumference of a graph $G$ is the length of a longest cycle in $G$, or $+\infty$ if $G$ has no cycle. Birmelé (2003) showed that the treewidth of a graph $G$ is at most its circumference minus $1$. We strengthen this result for $2$-connected graphs as follows: If $G$ is $2$-connected, then its treedepth is at most its circumference.

On the Lossy Kernelization for Connected Treedepth Deletion Set
We study the CONNECTED η -TREEDEPTH DELETION problem, where the input instance is an undirected graph G, and an integer k and the objective is to decide whether there is a vertex set S⊆V(G) such that |S|≤k, every connected component of G−S has treedepth ...

Integer Programming and Incidence Treedepth [PDF]
Recently a strong connection has been shown between the tractability of integer programming (IP) with bounded coefficients on the one side and the structure of its constraint matrix on the other side. To that end, integer linear programming is fixed-parameter tractable with respect to the primal (or dual) treedepth of the Gaifman graph of its ...

Distributed Model Checking on Graphs of Bounded Treedepth [PDF]
Abstract We establish that every monadic second-order logic (MSO) formula on graphs with bounded treedepth is decidable in a constant number of rounds within the model. To our knowledge, this marks the first meta-theorem regarding distributed model checking. Various optimization problems on graphs are expressible

Polynomial Treedepth Bounds in Linear Colorings [PDF]
AbstractLow-treedepth colorings are an important tool for algorithms that exploit structure in classes of bounded expansion; they guarantee subgraphs that use few colors have bounded treedepth. These colorings have an implicit tradeoff between the total number of colors used and the treedepth bound, and prior empirical work suggests that the former ...

Tight Bound on Treedepth in Terms of Pathwidth and Longest Path [PDF]
We show that every graph with pathwidth strictly less than $a$ that contains no path on $2^b$ vertices as a subgraph has treedepth at most $10ab$. The bound is best possible up to a constant factor.
