Toroidal Grid Minors and Stretch in Embedded Graphs∗
1 We investigate the toroidal expanse of an embedded graph G, that is, the size of the largest 2 toroidal grid contained in G as a minor. In the course of this work we introduce a new embedding 3 density parameter, the stretch of an embedded graph G, and use it to bound the toroidal 4 expanse from above and from below within a constant factor depending only on the genus and 5 the maximum degree...
متن کاملOn independent domination numbers of grid and toroidal grid directed graphs
A subset $S$ of vertex set $V(D)$ is an {em indpendent dominating set} of $D$ if $S$ is both an independent and a dominating set of $D$. The {em indpendent domination number}, $i(D)$ is the cardinality of the smallest independent dominating set of $D$. In this paper we calculate the independent domination number of the { em cartesian product} of two {em directed paths} $P_m$ and $P_n$ for arbi...
متن کاملBidimensionality, Map Graphs, and Grid Minors
In this paper we extend the theory of bidimensionality to two families of graphs that do not exclude fixed minors: map graphs and power graphs. In both cases we prove a polynomial relation between the treewidth of a graph in the family and the size of the largest grid minor. These bounds improve the running times of a broad class of fixed-parameter algorithms. Our novel technique of using appro...
متن کاملTree-width and large grid minors in planar graphs
We call H a minor of a graph G if H is obtainable from a subgraph of G by edge contractions. If g ≥ 2, the g-grid is the simple graph with vertices vij (1 ≤ i, j ≤ g) where vij and vi′j′ are adjacent if |i− i′|+ |j − j′| = 1; see Robertson and Seymour (1991). A tree-decomposition of a graph G , is a pair (T, S), where T is a tree and S = {St : t ∈ V (T )} is a family of subsets of V (G), called...
متن کاملDominating Sequences in Grid-Like and Toroidal Graphs
A longest sequence S of distinct vertices of a graph G such that each vertex of S dominates some vertex that is not dominated by its preceding vertices, is called a Grundy dominating sequence; the length of S is the Grundy domination number of G. In this paper we study the Grundy domination number in the four standard graph products: the Cartesian, the lexicographic, the direct, and the strong ...
