Graphs of Small Rank-width Are Pivot-minors of Graphs of Small Tree-width
We prove that every graph of rank-width k is a pivot-minor of a graph of tree-width at most 2k. We also prove that graphs of rank-width at most 1, equivalently distance-hereditary graphs, are exactly vertex-minors of trees, and graphs of linear rank-width at most 1 are precisely vertex-minors of paths. In addition, we show that bipartite graphs of rank-width at most 1 are exactly pivot-minors o...

متن کاملRank-width and tree-width of H-minor-free graphs
We prove that for any fixed r ≥ 2, the tree-width of graphs not containing Kr as a topological minor (resp. as a subgraph) is bounded by a linear (resp. polynomial) function of their rank-width. We also present refinements of our bounds for other graph classes such as Kr-minor free graphs and graphs of bounded genus.
متن کاملKa, k Minors in Graphs of Bounded Tree-Width
It is shown that for any positive integers k and w there exists a constant N = N(k, w) such that every 7-connected graph of tree-width less than w and of order at least N contains K3,k as a minor. Similar result is proved for Ka,k minors where a is an arbitrary fixed integer and the required connectivity depends only on a. These are the first results of this type where fixed connectivity forces...
متن کاملK_6 minors in 6-connected graphs of bounded tree-width
We prove that every sufficiently big 6-connected graph of bounded treewidth either has a K6 minor, or has a vertex whose deletion makes the graph planar. This is a step toward proving that the same conclusion holds for all sufficiently big 6-connected graphs. Jørgensen conjectured that it holds for all 6-connected graphs. 8 April 2005, revised 4 September 2008. Partially supported by NSF under ...
