An Erdős-Pósa theorem for induced packings of even cycles

Jungho Ahn, Lars Jaffke, O-joung Kwon +2

We show that for every graph and every positive integer , contains either vertex-disjoint even cycles with no edges between distinct cycles, or a set of $O(k^2\log k…

On a variant of dichromatic number for digraphs with prescribed sets of arcs

O-joung Kwon, Xiaopan Lian

In this paper, we consider a variant of dichromatic number on digraphs with prescribed sets of arcs. Let be a digraph and let be two sets of arcs in . For a subdi…

A characterization of graphs of radius- flip-width at most

Yeonsu Chang, Sejin Ko, O-joung Kwon +1

The -flip-width of a graph, for , is a graph parameter defined in terms of a variant of the cops and robber game, called the flipper game, and it…

Group vertex-arboricity of group-labelled graphs

O-joung Kwon, Xiaopan Lian

We introduce the vertex-arboricity of group-labelled graphs. For an abelian group , a -labelled graph is a graph whose edges are labelled by elements of . For an abelian g…

A unified Erdős-Pósa theorem for cycles in graphs labelled by multiple abelian groups

J. Pascal Gollin, Kevin Hendrey, O-joung Kwon +2

In 1965, Erdős and Pósa proved that there is an (approximate) duality between the maximum size of a packing of cycles and the minimum size of a vertex set hitting all cycles. Such…

Reduced bandwidth: a qualitative strengthening of twin-width in minor-closed classes (and beyond)

Édouard Bonnet, O-joung Kwon, David R. Wood

In a reduction sequence of a graph, vertices are successively identified until the graph has one vertex. At each step, when identifying and , each edge incident to exactly o…

Obstructions for matroids of path-width at most k and graphs of linear rank-width at most k

Mamadou Mostapha Kanté, Eun Jung Kim, O-joung Kwon +1

Every minor-closed class of matroids of bounded branch-width can be characterized by a list of excluded minors, but unlike graphs, this list may need to be infinite in general. How…

On the Erdős-Pósa property for long holes in -free graphs

Tony Huynh, O-joung Kwon

We prove that there exists a function such that for every -free graph and every , either contains vertex-disjoint…

Classes of intersection digraphs with good algorithmic properties

Lars Jaffke, O-joung Kwon, Jan Arne Telle

An intersection digraph is a digraph where every vertex is represented by an ordered pair of sets such that there is an edge from to if and only if a…

A unified half-integral Erdős-Pósa theorem for cycles in graphs labelled by multiple abelian groups

J. Pascal Gollin, Kevin Hendrey, Ken-ichi Kawarabayashi +2

Erdős and Pósa proved in 1965 that there is a duality between the maximum size of a packing of cycles and the minimum size of a vertex set hitting all cycles. Such a duality does n…

A system of disjoint representatives of line segments with given directions

Jinha Kim, Minki Kim, O-Joung Kwon

We prove that for all positive integers and , there exists an integer satisfying the following. If is a set of direction vectors in the plane and $\math…

Tree pivot-minors and linear rank-width

Konrad K. Dabrowski, François Dross, Jisu Jeong +4

Tree-width and its linear variant path-width play a central role for the graph minor relation. In particular, Robertson and Seymour (1983) proved that for every tree~, the class…

A half-integral Erdős-Pósa theorem for directed odd cycles

Ken-ichi Kawarabayashi, Stephan Kreutzer, O-joung Kwon +1

We prove that there exists a function such that every directed graph contains either directed odd cycles where every vertex of is c…

Well-partitioned chordal graphs: obstruction set and disjoint paths

Jungho Ahn, Lars Jaffke, O-joung Kwon +1

We introduce a new subclass of chordal graphs that generalizes split graphs, which we call well-partitioned chordal graphs. Split graphs are graphs that admit a partition of the ve…

Rainbow independent sets on dense graph classes

Jinha Kim, Minki Kim, O-joung Kwon

Given a family of independent sets in a graph, a rainbow independent set is an independent set such that there is an injection where fo…

Obstructions for bounded shrub-depth and rank-depth

O-joung Kwon, Rose McCarty, Sang-il Oum +1

Shrub-depth and rank-depth are dense analogues of the tree-depth of a graph. It is well known that a graph has large tree-depth if and only if it has a long path as a subgraph. We…

The grid theorem for vertex-minors

Jim Geelen, O-Joung Kwon, Rose McCarty +1

We prove that, for each circle graph , every graph with sufficiently large rank-width contains a vertex-minor isomorphic to .

Graphs without two vertex-disjoint -cycles

Minjeong Kang, O-joung Kwon, Myounghwan Lee

Lovász (1965) characterized graphs without two vertex-disjoint cycles, which implies that such graphs have at most three vertices hitting all cycles. In this paper, we ask whether…

Branch-depth: Generalizing tree-depth of graphs

Matt DeVos, O-joung Kwon, Sang-il Oum

We present a concept called the branch-depth of a connectivity function, that generalizes the tree-depth of graphs. Then we prove two theorems showing that this concept aligns clos…
