چکیده

It is proved that there are functions f (r) and N(r, s) such that for every positive integer r , s, each graph G with average degree d(G) = 2|E(G)|/|V (G)| ≥ f (r), and with at least N(r, s) vertices has a minor isomorphic to Kr,s or to the union of s disjoint copies of Kr . © 2005 Published by Elsevier Ltd

Edge Disjoint Paths in Moderately Connected Graphs

We study the Edge Disjoint Paths (EDP) problem in undirected graphs: Given a graph G with n nodes and a set T of pairs of terminals, connect as many terminal pairs as possible using paths that are mutually edge disjoint. This leads to a variety of classic NP-complete problems, for which approximability is not well understood. We show a polylogarithmic approximation algorithm for the undirected ...

Splice Graphs and their Vertex-Degree-Based Invariants

Let G_1 and G_2 be simple connected graphs with disjoint vertex sets V(G_1) and V(G_2), respectively. For given vertices a_1in V(G_1) and a_2in V(G_2), a splice of G_1 and G_2 by vertices a_1 and a_2 is defined by identifying the vertices a_1 and a_2 in the union of G_1 and G_2. In this paper, we present exact formulas for computing some vertex-degree-based graph invariants of splice of graphs.

Forcing large complete minors in infinite graphs

It is well-known that in finite graphs, large complete minors/topological minors can be forced by assuming a large average degree. Our aim is to extend this fact to infinite graphs. For this, we generalise the notion of the relative end degree, which had been previously introduced by the first author for locally finite graphs, and show that large minimum relative degree at the ends and large mi...

Degree-3 Treewidth Sparsifiers

We study treewidth sparsifiers. Informally, given a graph G of treewidth k, a treewidth sparsifier H is a minor of G, whose treewidth is close to k, |V (H)| is small, and the maximum vertex degree in H is bounded. Treewidth sparsifiers of degree 3 are of particular interest, as routing on node-disjoint paths, and computing minors seems easier in sub-cubic graphs than in general graphs. In this ...
