Santiago Guzmán-Pro, Local expressions of graphs classes
A common technique to characterize hereditary graph classes is to exhibit their minimal obstructions. Sometimes, the set of minimal obstructions might be infinite, or too complicated to describe. For instance, for any $k\ge 3$, the set of minimal obstructions of the class of $k$-colourable graphs is yet unknown. Nonetheless, the Roy-Gallai-Hasse-Vitaver Theorem asserts that a graph $G$ …
