For a tree decomposition $\mathcal{T}$ of a graph $G$, let $\mu(\mathcal{T})$ denote the maximum size of an induced matching in $G$ with the property that some bag of $\mathcal{T}$ contains at least one endpoint of every edge of the…

In this paper we present a new width measure for a tree decomposition, minor-matching hypertree width, $\mu\text{-}tw$, for graphs and hypergraphs, such that bounding the width guarantees that set of maximal independent sets has a…
