The Graphic Travelling Salesman Problem is the problem of finding a spanning closed walk (a TSP walk) of minimum length in a given connected graph. The special case of the Graphic TSP on subcubic graphs has been studied extensively due to their worst-case behaviour in the famous $\frac{4}{3}$-integrality-gap conjecture on the "subtour elimination" linear programming …

I will first introduce the notion of recognisability of languages of terms and then its extensions to sets of relational structures. In a second step, I will discuss relations with decompositions of graphs/matroids and why their MSOL-definability is related to understanding recognisable sets. I will finally explain how to define in MSOL branch-decompositions for finitely … |

We introduce the notion of delineation. A graph class $\mathcal C$ is said delineated by twin-width (or simply, delineated) if for every hereditary closure $\mathcal D$ of a subclass of $\mathcal C$, it holds that $\mathcal D$ has bounded twin-width if and only if $\mathcal D$ is monadically dependent. An effective strengthening of delineation for … |

The Erdős–Faber–Lovász conjecture (posed in 1972) states that the chromatic index of any linear hypergraph on n vertices is at most n. In this talk, I will sketch a proof of this conjecture for every large n. Joint work with D. Kang, T. Kelly, D. Kühn and D. Osthus. |
