Linda Cook, On polynomial degree-boundedness

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

We prove a conjecture of Bonamy, Bousquet, Pilipczuk, Rzążewski, Thomassé, and Walczak, that for every graph H, there is a polynomial p such that for every positive integer s, every graph of average degree at least p(s) contains either Ks,s as a subgraph or contains an induced subdivision of H. This improves upon a result

Evangelos Protopapas, Erdős-Pósa Dualities for Minors

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

Let G and H be minor-closed graphs classes. The class H has the Erdős-Pósa property in G if there is a function f:NN such that every graph G in G either contains (a packing of) k disjoint copies of some subgraph minimal graph HH or contains (a covering of)

Casey Tompkins, On graphs without cycles of length 0 modulo 4

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

Bollobás proved that for every k and such that kZ+ contains an even number, an n-vertex graph containing no cycle of length modk can contain at most a linear number of edges. The precise (or asymptotic) value of the maximum number of edges in such a graph is known for very few

Eero Räty, Positive discrepancy, MaxCut and eigenvalues of graphs

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

The positive discrepancy of a graph G of edge density p is defined as the maximum of e(U)p|U|(|U|1)/2, where the maximum is taken over subsets of vertices in G. In 1993 Alon proved that if G is a d-regular graph on n vertices and d=O(n1/9), then the positive discrepancy of G

Magnus Wahlström, Algorithmic aspects of linear delta-matroids

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

Delta-matroids are a generalization of matroids with connections to many parts of graph theory and combinatorics (such as matching theory and the structure of topological graph embeddings). Formally, a delta-matroid is a pair D=(V,F) where F is a collection of subsets of V known as "feasible sets." (They can be thought of as

Víctor Dalmau, Right-adjoints of Datalog Programs

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

We say that two functors Λ and Γ between thin categories of relational structures are adjoint if for all structures A and B, we have that Λ(A) maps homomorphically to B if and only if A maps homomorphically to Γ(B). If this is the case Λ is called the left adjoint to Γ and Γ

Tony Huynh, Aharoni’s rainbow cycle conjecture holds up to an additive constant

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

In 2017, Aharoni proposed the following generalization of the Caccetta-Häggkvist conjecture for digraphs. If G is a simple n-vertex edge-colored graph with n color classes of size at least r, then G contains a rainbow cycle of length at most ⌈n/r⌉. In this talk, we prove that Aharoni's conjecture holds up to an additive constant.

Niloufar Fuladi, Cross-cap drawings and signed reversal distance

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

A cross-cap drawing of a graph G is a drawing on the sphere with g distinct points, called cross-caps, such that the drawing is an embedding except at the cross-caps, where edges cross properly. A cross-cap drawing of a graph G with g cross-caps can be used to represent an embedding of G on a
