Odd coloring graphs with linear neighborhood complexity

James Davies, Meike Hatzel, Kolja Knauer +2

We prove that any class of graphs with linear neighborhood complexity has bounded improper odd chromatic number. As a result, if is the class of all circle graphs, or…

On the Relation Between Treewidth, Tree-Independence Number, and Tree-Chromatic Number of Graphs

Alex Koutsoutis, Kilian Krause, Chun-Hung Liu +2

We investigate two recently introduced graph parameters, both of which measure the complexity of the tree decompositions of a given graph. Recall that the treewidth o…

The Price of Connectivity Augmentation on Planar Graphs

Hugo A. Akitaya, Justin Dallant, Erik D. Demaine +5

Given two classes of graphs, , and a -connected graph , we wish to augment with a smallest cardinality set of new e…

Strong odd coloring in minor-closed classes

Miriam Goetze, Fabian Klute, Kolja Knauer +3

We show that the strong odd chromatic number on any proper minor-closed graph class is bounded by a constant. We almost determine the smallest such constant for outerplanar graphs.

Girth in -representable matroids

James Davies, Meike Hatzel, Kolja Knauer +2

We prove a conjecture of Geelen, Gerards, and Whittle that for any finite field and any integer , every cosimple -representable matroid with sufficiently large gi…

Boundedness and Separation in the Graph Covering Number Framework

Miriam Goetze, Peter Stumpf, Torsten Ueckerdt

For a graph class and a graph , the four -covering numbers of , namely global , union ,…
