We show that for every infinite collection $\mathcal{R}$ of disjoint equivalent rays in a graph $G$ there is a subdivision of the hexagonal half-grid in $G$ such that all its vertical rays belong to $\mathcal{R}$. This result strengthens…
In this paper, we present a short proof of Halin's grid theorem.
Halin showed that every thick end of every graph contains an infinite grid. We extend Halin's theorem to digraphs. More precisely, we show that for every infinite family $\mathcal{R}$ of disjoint equivalent out-rays there is a grid whose…
We prove a coarse version of Halin's Grid Theorem: Every one-ended, locally finite graph that contains the disjoint union of infinitely many rays as an asymptotic minor also contains the half-grid as an asymptotic minor. More generally, we…
Halin proved that every graph with an end $\omega$ containing infinitely many pairwise disjoint rays admits a subdivision of the infinite quarter-grid as a subgraph where all rays from that subgraph belong to $\omega$. We will prove a…
We prove that if $ T $ is a semi-special tree that is not special, then there exists a graph $ G $, formed as an inflation of a sparse $ T $-graph, such that for any special tree $ S $, $ G $ is not a subdivision of an inflation of an…
We prove necessary and sufficient conditions on a family of (generalised) gridding matrices to determine when the corresponding permutation classes are partially well-ordered. One direction requires an application of Higman's Theorem and…
This note presents a new, elementary proof of a generalization of a theorem of Halin to graphs with unbounded degrees, which is then applied to show that every connected, countably infinite graph G with a subdegree-finite, infinite…
Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with $n\ge 3$. A classic result of Dirac from 1952 asserts that $G$ is hamiltonian if $\delta(G)\ge n/2$. Dirac's theorem is one of the most influential results in the study of hamiltonicity and by now there…
While finite graphs have tree-decompositions that efficiently distinguish all their tangles, locally finite graphs with thick ends need not have such tree-decompositions. We show that every locally finite graph without thick ends admits…
Halin proved in 1978 that there exists a normal spanning tree in every connected graph $G$ that satisfies the following two conditions: (i) $G$ contains no subdivision of a `fat' $K_{\aleph_0}$, one in which every edge has been replaced by…
A Halin graph is a graph constructed by embedding a tree with no vertex of degree two in the plane and then adding a cycle to join the tree's leaves. The Halin Tur\'an number of a graph $F$, denoted as $\ex_{\hh}(n,F)$, is the maximum…
We prove that every graph which admits a tree-decomposition into finite parts has a rooted tree-decomposition into finite parts that is linked, tight and componental. As an application, we obtain that every graph without half-grid minor has…
In 2007, Arkin et al. initiated a systematic study of the complexity of the Hamiltonian cycle problem on square, triangular, or hexagonal grid graphs, restricted to polygonal, thin, superthin, degree-bounded, or solid grid graphs. They…
We consider infinite connected quasi-transitive locally finite graphs and show that every such graph with more than one end is a tree amalgamation of two other such graphs. This can be seen as a graph-theoretical version of Stallings'…
For a given graph $H$, we say that a graph $G$ has a perfect $H$-subdivision tiling if $G$ contains a collection of vertex-disjoint subdivisions of $H$ covering all vertices of $G.$ Let $\delta_{\mathrm{sub}}(n, H)$ be the smallest integer…
We prove that every locally finite, quasi-transitive graph with a thick end whose cycle space is generated by cycles of bounded length contains the full-grid as an asymptotic minor and as a diverging minor. This in particular includes all…
For a connected labelled graph $G$, a {\em spanning tree} $T$ is a connected and an acyclic subgraph that spans all vertices of $G$. In this paper, we consider a classical combinatorial problem which is to list all spanning trees of $G$. A…
We prove that, for each circle graph $H$, every graph with sufficiently large rank-width contains a vertex-minor isomorphic to $H$.
The longstanding conjecture of Halin characterizing the existence of normal spanning trees in infinite graphs has been recently proved by Max Pitz [3]. A critical step in the proof involves the construction of dominated torsos, whose…
