Unavoidable minors of graphs of large type
In this paper, we study one measure of complexity of a graph, namely its type. The type of a graph G is deened to be the minimum number n such that there is a sequence of graphs G = G 0 , G 1 , : : : , G n , where G i is obtained by contracting one edge in or deleting one edge from each block of G i?1 , and where G n is edgeless. We show that a 3-connected graph has large type if and only if it...
متن کاملOn Unavoidable Induced Subgraphs in Large Prime Graphs
Chudnovsky, Kim, Oum, and Seymour recently established that any prime graph contains one of a short list of induced prime subgraphs [1]. In the present paper we reprove their theorem using many of the same ideas, but with the key model-theoretic ingredient of first determining the so-called amount of stability of the graph. This approach changes the applicable Ramsey theorem, improves the bound...
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 topological minors of infinite graphs
A graph G is loosely-c-connected, or l-c-connected, if there exists a number d depending on G such that the deletion of fewer than c vertices from G leaves precisely one infinite component and a graph containing at most d vertices. In this paper, we give the structure of a set of l-c-connected infinite graphs that form an unavoidable set among the topological minors of l-c-connected infinite gr...
متن کاملUnavoidable 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...
