We provide a complete structural characterization of $K_{2,4}$-minor-free graphs. The $3$-connected $K_{2,4}$-minor-free graphs consist of nine small graphs on at most eight vertices, together with a family of planar graphs that contains…
Let $f(n,H)$ denote the maximum number of copies of $H$ in an $n$-vertex planar graph. The order of magnitude of $f(n,P_k)$, where $P_k$ is a path on $k$ vertices, is $n^{{\lfloor{\frac{k-1}{2}}\rfloor}+1}$. In this paper we determine the…
We consider Colouring on graphs that are $H$-subgraph-free for some fixed graph $H$, which are graphs that do not contain $H$ as a subgraph. To classify the complexity of Colouring on $H$-subgraph-free graphs for connected $H$, it remains…
The problem of packing as many subgraphs isomorphic to $H \in \mathcal H$ as possible in a graph for a class $\mathcal H$ of graphs is well studied in the literature. Both vertex-disjoint and edge-disjoint versions are known to be…
We prove that every graph $G$ contains either $k$ edge-disjoint $K_4$-subdivisions or a set $X$ of at most $O(k^8 \log k)$ edges such that $G-X$ does not contain any $K_4$-subdivision. This shows that $K_4$-subdivisions have the…
Let $H$ and $G$ be graphs such that $H$ has at least 3 vertices and is connected. The $H$-line graph of $G$, denoted by $HL(G)$, is that graph whose vertices are the edges of $G$ and where two vertices of $HL(G)$ are adjacent if they are…
Hasunuma [J. Graph Theory 102 (2023) 423-435] conjectured that for any tree $T$ of order $m$, every $k$-connected (or $k$-edge-connected) graph $G$ with minimum degree at least $k+m-1$ contains a tree $T'\cong T$ such that $G-E(T')$ is…
A key concept for many graph layout algorithms is planarity, a graph property that allows to draw vertices and edges crossing-free in the plane. Important is the generalization to $k$-planar graphs, which can be drawn in the plane with at…
Let $F=\{H_1,...,H_k\}$ be a family of graphs. A graph $G$ with $m$ edges is called {\em totally $F$-decomposable} if for {\em every} linear combination of the form $\alpha_1 e(H_1) + ... + \alpha_k e(H_k) = m$ where each $\alpha_i$ is a…
For a given graph $H$, a graph $G$ is $H$-linked if, for every injection $\varphi: V(H) \to V(G)$, the graph $G$ contains a subdivision of $H$ with $\varphi(v)$ corresponding to $v$, for each $v\in V(H)$. Let $f(H)$ be the minimum integer…
Given two graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$, a graph $G$ is $(H_1,H_2)$-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ or $H_2$. A $P_t$ is the path on $t$ vertices. A chair is a $P_4$ with an additional vertex adjacent to one of the…
In the deletion version of the list homomorphism problem, we are given graphs G and H, a list L(v) that is a subset of V(H) for each vertex v of G, and an integer k. The task is to decide whether there exists a subset W of V(G) of size at…
An edge of a quasi $k$-connected graph is said to be quasi $k$-contractible if the contraction of the edge results in a quasi $k$-connected graph. If every quasi $k$-connected graph without a quasi $k$-contractible edge has either $H_{1}$…
Partial 1-trees are undirected graphs of treewidth at most one. Similarly, partial 1-DAGs are directed graphs of KellyWidth at most two. It is well-known that an undirected graph is a partial 1-tree if and only if it has no K_3 minor. In…
We study the following question: how few edges can we delete from any $H$-free graph on $n$ vertices in order to make the resulting graph $k$-colorable? It turns out that various classical problems in extremal graph theory are special cases…
Given hypergraphs $F$ and $H$, an $F$-factor in $H$ is a set of vertex-disjoint copies of $F$ which cover all the vertices in $H$. Let $K^- _4$ denote the $3$-uniform hypergraph with $4$ vertices and $3$ edges. We show that for sufficiently…
In this paper, we show that every $O(m)$-edge-connected simple graph $G$ of size divisible by $m$ with minimum degree at least $2^{O(m)}$ has an edge-decomposition into isomorphic copies of any given tree $T$ of size $m$. Moreover, the…
Let $a,b,c,d$ be four vertices in a graph $G$. A \emph{$K_4$-minor rooted} at $a,b,c,d$ consists of four pairwise-disjoint pairwise-adjacent connected subgraphs of $G$, respectively containing $a,b,c,d$. We characterise precisely when $G$…
A graph $G$ is $k$-vertex-critical if $\chi(G) = k$ but $\chi(G-v)<k$ for all $v \in V(G)$. A graph is $(H_1,H_2)$-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ nor $H_2$. A $W_4$ is the graph consisting of a $C_4$ plus an…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a $k$-uniform hypergraph. A chain in $\mathcal{H}$ is a sequence of its vertices such that every $k$ consecutive vertices form an edge. In 1999 Katona and Kierstead suggested to use chains in hypergraphs as the…
