Unavoidable minors of large 4 - connected
11 It is known that any 3-connected matroid that is large enough is certain to contain 12 a minor of a given size belonging one of a few special classes of matroids. This 13 paper proves a similar unavoidable minor result for large 4-connected bicircular 14 matroids. The main result follows from establishing the list of unavoidable minors 15 of large 4-biconnected graphs, which are the graphs r...
متن کاملUnavoidable parallel minors of 4-connected graphs
A parallel minor is obtained from a graph by any sequence of edge contractions and parallel edge deletions. We prove that, for any positive integer k, every internally 4-connected graph of sufficiently high order contains a parallel minor isomorphic to a variation of K4,k with a complete graph on the vertices of degree k, the k-partition triple fan with a complete graph on the vertices of degre...
متن کاملUnavoidable parallel minors of regular matroids
We prove that, for each positive integer k, every sufficiently large 3-connected regular matroid has a parallel minor isomorphic to M∗(K3,k), M(Wk), M(Kk), the cycle matroid of the graph obtained from K2,k by adding paths through the vertices of each vertex class, or the cycle matroid of the graph obtained from K3,k by adding a complete graph on the vertex class with three vertices.

We prove that, for each positive integer k, every sufficiently large 3-connected regular matroid has a parallel minor isomorphic to M∗(K3,k), M(Wk), M(Kk), the cycle matroid of the graph obtained from K2,k by adding paths through the vertices of each vertex class, or the cycle matroid of the graph obtained from K3,k by adding a complete graph on the vertex class with three vertices.
متن کاملUnavoidable Connected Matroids Retaining a Specified Minor
A sufficiently large connected matroid M contains a big circuit or a big cocircuit. Pou-Lin Wu showed that we can ensure that M has a big circuit or a big cocircuit containing any chosen element of M . In this paper, we begin with a fixed connected matroid N and we take M to be a connected matroid that has N as a minor. Our main result establishes that ifM is sufficiently large, then, up to dua...
