SUMMARY:Sebastian Siebertz\, Transducing paths in graph classes with unbounded shrubdepth
DESCRIPTION:Transductions are a general formalism for expressing transformations of graphs (and more generally\, of relational structures) in logic. We prove that a graph class C can be FO-transduced from a class of bounded-height trees (that is\, has bounded shrubdepth) if\, and only if\, from C one cannot FO-transduce the class of all paths. This establishes one of the three remaining open questions posed by Blumensath and Courcelle about the MSO-transduction quasi-order\, even in the stronger form that concerns FO-transductions instead of MSO-transductions. \nThe backbone of our proof is a graph-theoretic statement that says the following: If a graph G excludes a path\, the bipartite complement of a path\, and a half-graph as semi-induced subgraphs\, then the vertex set of G can be partitioned into a bounded number of parts so that every part induces a cograph of bounded height\, and every pair of parts semi-induce a bi-cograph of bounded height. This statement may be of independent interest; for instance\, it implies that the graphs in question form a class that is linearly chi-bounded. \nThis is joint work with Patrice Ossona de Mendez and Michał Pilipczuk.
