Graph Isomorphism for K_{3, 3}-free and K_5-free graphs is in Log-space

Graph isomorphism is an important and widely studied computational problem with a yet unsettled complexity. However, the exact complexity is known for isomorphism of various classes of graphs. Recently, [8] proved that planar isomorphism is complete for log-space. We extend this result further to the classes of graphs which exclude K3,3 or K5 as a minor, and give a log-space algorithm. Our algo...

A Characterization of K2, 4-Minor-Free Graphs

We provide a complete structural characterization of K2,4-minor-free graphs. The 3-connected K2,4minor-free graphs consist of nine small graphs on at most eight vertices, together with a family of planar graphs that contains K4 and, for each n ≥ 5, 2n − 8 nonisomorphic graphs of order n. To describe the 2-connected K2,4-minor-free graphs we use xy-outerplanar graphs, graphs embeddable in the pl...

Hamiltonicity of planar graphs with a forbidden minor

Tutte showed that 4-connected planar graphs are Hamiltonian, but it is well known that 3-connected planar graphs need not be Hamiltonian. We show that K2,5-minor-free 3-connected planar graphs are Hamiltonian. This does not extend to K2,5-minor-free 3-connected graphs in general, as shown by the Petersen graph, and does not extend to K2,6-minor-free 3-connected planar graphs, as we show by an i...

The structure and labelled enumeration of K_{3,3}-subdivision-free projective-planar graphs

We consider the class F of 2-connected non-planar K3,3-subdivision-free graphs that are embeddable in the projective plane. We show that these graphs admit a unique decomposition as a graph K5 (the core) where the edges are replaced by two-pole networks constructed from 2-connected planar graphs. A method to enumerate these graphs in the labelled case is described. Moreover, we enumerate the ho...

Bounds of spectral radii of K_{2,3}-minor free graphs

Let A(G) be the adjacency matrix of a graph G. The largest eigenvalue of A(G) is called spectral radius of G. In this paper, an upper bound of spectral radii of K2,3-minor free graphs with order n is shown to be 3 2 + √ n− 7 4 . In order to prove this upper bound, a structural characterization of K2,3-minor free graphs is presented in this paper.
