We show that for pairs and of disjoint subsets vertices a graph , if is sufficiently large, then there exists vertex in such are two ways to reduce by vertex-minor operation removes while preserving the connectivity between .

Coloring graphs without fan vertex-minors and graphs without cycle pivot-minors
A fan Fk is a graph that consists of an induced path on k vertices and an additional vertex that is adjacent to all vertices of the path. We prove that for all positive integers q and k, every graph with sufficiently large chromatic number contains either a clique of size q or a vertex-minor isomorphic to Fk. We also prove that for all positive integers q and k ≥ 3, every graph with sufficientl...
متن کاملRank-width and vertex-minors
The rank-width is a graph parameter related in terms of fixed functions to cliquewidth but more tractable. Clique-width has nice algorithmic properties, but no good “minor” relation is known analogous to graph minor embedding for tree-width. In this paper, we discuss the vertex-minor relation of graphs and its connection with rank-width. We prove a relationship between vertex-minors of bipartit...
متن کاملTree-depth and Vertex-minors
In a recent paper [6], Kwon and Oum claim that every graph of bounded rank-width is a pivot-minor of a graph of bounded tree-width (while the converse has been known true already before). We study the analogous questions for “depth” parameters of graphs, namely for the tree-depth and related new shrub-depth. We show that shrub-depth is monotone under taking vertex-minors, and that every graph c...
متن کاملLogarithmically small minors and topological minors
For every integer t there is a smallest real number c(t) such that any graph with average degree at least c(t) must contain a Kt-minor (proved by Mader). Improving on results of Shapira and Sudakov, we prove the conjecture of Fiorini, Joret, Theis and Wood that any graph with n vertices and average degree at least c(t) + ε must contain a Kt-minor consisting of at most C(ε, t) logn vertices. Mad...
متن کاملTournament minors
We say a digraph G is a minor of a digraph H if G can be obtained from a subdigraph of H by repeatedly contracting a strongly-connected subdigraph to a vertex. Here, we show the class of all tournaments is a well-quasi-order under minor containment.
