Optimal tree-decompositions with bags of bounded pathwidth

Kevin Hendrey, Robert Hickingbotham, Jędrzej Hodor +1

The paper proves that every planar graph admits an optimal-width tree‑decomposition whose bags induce subgraphs of pathwidth at most three, and extends similar bounded‑pathwidth ba…

An Erdős-Pósa theorem for cycles and faces of distinct lengths

J. Pascal Gollin, Maximilian Gorsky, Meike Hatzel +6

We show that for every , every graph contains vertex-disjoint cycles of different lengths, or there exists a set with $|X| \in \mathcal…

The Erdős-Pósa property for prime-length cycles fails (and beyond)

Maximilian Gorsky, Kevin Hendrey, Tony Huynh

We prove that for every , prime-length cycles do not have the -integral Erdős-Pósa property, even when restricted to planar graphs. We in fact prov…

Long cycles in vertex transitive digraphs

Matija Bucić, Kevin Hendrey, Bojan Mohar +2

One of the most well-known conjectures concerning Hamiltonicity in graphs asserts that any sufficiently large connected vertex transitive graph contains a Hamilton cycle. In this f…

Blind cop-width and balanced minors of graphs

Hector Buffière, Rutger Campbell, Kevin Hendrey +1

We investigate a pursuit-evasion game on an undirected graph in which a robber, moving at a fixed constant speed, attempts to evade a team of cops who are blind to the robber's loc…

Optimal Tree-Decompositions with Bags of Bounded Treewidth

Kevin Hendrey, David R. Wood

We prove that several natural graph classes have tree-decompositions with minimum width such that each bag has bounded treewidth. For example, every planar graph has a tree-decompo…
