This talk deals with induced minor obstructions to treewidth. The natural setup for this problem is to consider the class of graphs excluding some planar graph, and some complete bipartite graph as induced minors, and some complete graph as a subgraph. Unfortunately, such classes still contain graphs of arbitrarily large treewidth. Moreover, a result of …

The grid theorem of Robertson and Seymour can be equivalently stated using balanced separators, that are separators whose deletion leaves every component with no more than half of the vertices of the graph, as follows. Every graph that excludes some planar graph as a minor has a balanced separator of bounded size. Building on this … |

I will introduce a new structure on finite graphs, which takes the form of a labeling of the vertices by nonnegative integers (possibly repeated). This labeling is isomorphism invariant, and seems to reflect some mix of local and global structure of the graph. I will describe an algorithm for computing these labels, which uses a … |

For a set $X$ of integer points, the relaxation complexity $\operatorname{rc}(X)$ is the smallest number of facets of any polyhedron P whose integer points are precisely those of X. In this paper, we focus on the case where X is the discrete standard simplex $\Delta_d = \{0, e_1, ..., e_d\}$. We show that $\operatorname{rc}(\Delta_d) = … |
