چکیده

Fix g > 1. Every graph of large enough tree-width contains a g × g grid as a minor; but here we prove that every four-edge-connected graph of large enough tree-width contains a g × g grid as an immersion (and hence contains any fixed graph with maximum degree at most four as an immersion). This result has a number of applications.

Sufficient conditions for maximally edge-connected and super-edge-connected

Let $G$ be a connected graph with minimum degree $delta$ and edge-connectivity $lambda$. A graph ismaximally edge-connected if $lambda=delta$, and it is super-edge-connected if every minimum edge-cut istrivial; that is, if every minimum edge-cut consists of edges incident with a vertex of minimum degree.In this paper, we show that a connected graph or a connected triangle-free graph is maximall...

Distinct edge geodetic decomposition in graphs

Let G=(V,E) be a simple connected graph of order p and size q. A decomposition of a graph G is a collection π of edge-disjoint subgraphs G_1,G_2,…,G_n of G such that every edge of G belongs to exactly one G_i,(1≤i ≤n). The decomposition 〖π={G〗_1,G_2,…,G_n} of a connected graph G is said to be a distinct edge geodetic decomposition if g_1 (G_i )≠g_1 (G_j ),(1≤i≠j≤n). The maximum cardinality of π...

Orientations of infinite graphs with prescribed edge-connectivity

We prove a decomposition result for locally finite graphs which can be used to extend results on edge-connectivity from finite to infinite graphs. It implies that every 4k-edge-connected graph G contains an immersion of some finite 2k-edge-connected Eulerian graph containing any prescribed vertex set (while planar graphs show that G need not contain a subdivision of a simple finite graph of lar...

On the edge-connectivity of C_4-free graphs

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $delta(G)$.The edge-connectivity $lambda(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum numberof edges whose removal renders $G$ disconnected. It is well-known that$lambda(G) leq delta(G)$,and if $lambda(G)=delta(G)$, then$G$ is said to be maximally edge-connected. A classical resultby Chartrand gives the sufficient condition $delta(G) geq frac{n-1}{2}$fo...

Excluding Graphs as Immersions in Surface Embedded Graphs

We prove a structural characterization of graphs that forbid a fixed graph H as an immersion and can be embedded in a surface of Eüler genus γ. In particular, we prove that a graph G that excludes some connected graph H as an immersion and is embedded in a surface of Eüler genus γ has either “small” treewidth (bounded by a function of H and γ) or “small” edge connectivity (bounded by the maximu...
