A family $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs is said to satisfy the Erdős-Pósa property if there exists a function $f$ such that for every positive integer $k$, every graph $G$ contains either $k$ (vertex-)disjoint subgraphs in $\mathcal{F}$ or a set of at most $f(k)$ vertices intersecting every subgraph of $G$ in $\mathcal{F}$. We characterize the obstructions to …
