A Polynomial-Time Approximation Algorithm for Complete Interval Minors
Romain Bourneuf, Julien Cocquet, Chaoliang Tang +1
As shown by Robertson and Seymour, deciding whether the complete graph is a minor of an input graph is a fixed parameter tractable problem when parameterized by . From…
Small hitting sets for longest paths and cycles
Sergey Norin, Raphael Steiner, Stephan Thomassé +1
Motivated by an old question of Gallai (1966) on the intersection of longest paths in a graph and the well-known conjectures of Lovász (1969) and Thomassen (1978) on the maximum le…
A Dense Neighborhood Lemma: Applications of Partial Concept Classes to Domination and Chromatic Number
Romain Bourneuf, Pierre Charbit, Stéphan Thomassé
In its Euclidean form, the Dense Neighborhood Lemma (DNL) asserts that if is a finite set of points of such that for each the ball intersects…
Lollipops, dense cycles and chords
Zdeněk Dvořák, Beatriz Martins, Stéphan Thomassé +1
In 1980, Gupta, Kahn and Robertson proved that every graph with minimum degree at least contains a cycle containing at least vertices each having at least $…
