A note on the Hadwiger number of circular arc graphs
Abstract. The intention of this note is to motivate the researchers to study Hadwiger’s conjecture for circular arc graphs. Let η(G) denote the largest clique minor of a graph G...

An approximate version of Hadwiger's conjecture for claw-free graphs
Hadwiger’s conjecture states that every graph with chromatic number χ has a clique minor of size χ. In this paper we prove a weakened version of this conjecture for the class ...

On a new reformulation of Hadwiger's conjecture
Assuming that every proper minor closed class of graphs contains a maximum with respect to the homomorphism order, we prove that such a maximum must be homomorphically equivalent ...

Graph Color Extensions: When Hadwiger's Conjecture and Embeddings Help
Suppose G is r-colorable and P V (G) is such that the components of G[P] are far apart. We show that any (r + s)-coloring of G[P] in which each component is s-colored extends to ...
