Nicola Lorenz, A Minor Characterisation of Normally Spanned Sets of Vertices
A rooted spanning tree of a graph $G$ is called normal if the endvertices of all edges of $G$ are comparable in the tree order. It is well known that …

What causes a graph to have high chromatic number? One obvious reason is containing a large clique (a set of pairwise adjacent vertices). This naturally leads to investigation of \(\chi\)-bounded …
Modern practical software libraries that are designed for isomorphism tests and symmetry computation rely on combinatorial techniques combined with techniques from algorithmic group theory. The Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm is such a …
Let S and T be two sets of points in a metric space with a total of n points. Each point in S and T has an associated value that specifies an upper limit on how many points it can …
Given a tournament $S$, a tournament is $S$-free if it has no subtournament isomorphic to $S$. Until now, there have been only a small number of tournaments $S$ such that …
Motivated by colouring minimal Cayley graphs, in 1978 Babai conjectured that no-lonely-colour graphs have bounded chromatic number. We disprove this in a strong sense by constructing graphs of arbitrarily large …
The now classical theorem of Erdős, Ko and Rado establishes the size of a maximal uniform family of pairwise-intersecting sets as well as a characterization of the families attaining such …
A seminal result of Tutte asserts that every 4-connected planar graph is hamiltonian. By Wagner's theorem, Tutte's result can be restated as: every 4-connected graph with no $K_{3,3}$ minor is …
Two celebrated extensions of Helly's theorem are the Fractional Helly theorem of Katchalski and Liu (1979) and the Quantitative Volume theorem of Barany, Katchalski, and Pach (1982). Improving on several …
Let $\mathcal F$ be a fixed, finite family of graphs. In the $\mathcal F$-Deletion problem, the input is a graph G and a positive integer k, and the goal is …
