Incidence Posets and Cover Graphs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove two theorems concerning incidence posets of graphs, cover graphs of posets and a related graph parameter. First, answering a question of Haxell, we show that the chromatic number of a graph is not bounded in terms of the dimension of its incidence poset, provided the dimension is at least four. Second, answering a question of Kříž and Nešetřil, we show that there are graphs with large girth and large chromatic number among the class of graphs having eye parameter at most two.

Minors and Dimension
It has been known for 30 years that posets with bounded height and with cover graphs of bounded maximum degree have bounded dimension. Recently, Streib and Trotter proved that dimension is bounded for posets with bounded height and planar cover graphs, and Joret et al. proved that dimension is bounded for posets with bounded height and with cover graphs of bounded tree-width. In this paper, it ...
متن کاملThe dimension of posets with planar cover graphs excluding two long incomparable chains
It has been known for more than 40 years that there are posets with planar cover graphs and arbitrarily large dimension. Recently, Streib and Trotter proved that such posets must have large height. In fact, all known constructions of such posets have two large disjoint chains with all points in one chain incomparable with all points in the other. Gutowski and Krawczyk conjectured that this feat...
متن کاملSparsity and dimension
We prove that posets of bounded height whose cover graphs belong to a fixed class with bounded expansion have bounded dimension. Bounded expansion, introduced by Nešetřil and Ossona de Mendez as a model for sparsity in graphs, is a property that is naturally satisfied by a wide range of graph classes, from graph structure theory (graphs excluding a minor or a topological minor) to graph drawing...
متن کاملThe Dimension of Posets with Planar Cover Graphs
Kelly showed that there exist planar posets of arbitrarily large dimension, and Streib and Trotter showed that the dimension of a poset with a planar cover graph is bounded in terms of its height. Here we continue the study of conditions that bound the dimension of posets with planar cover graphs. We show that if P is a poset with a planar comparability graph, then the dimension of P is at most...
متن کاملOn the Dimension of Posets with Cover Graphs of Treewidth
In 1977, Trotter and Moore proved that a poset has dimension at most 3 whenever its cover graph is a forest, or equivalently, has treewidth at most 1. On the other hand, a well-known construction of Kelly shows that there are posets of arbitrarily large dimension whose cover graphs have treewidth 3. In this paper we focus on the boundary case of treewidth 2. It was recently shown that the dimen...
