We introduce a new notion of minors for simplicial complexes (hypergraphs), so-called homological minors. Our motivation is to propose a general approach to attack certain extrema...
Before performing drastic changes to a project, it is worthwhile to thoroughly explore the available options within the current structure of a project. An alternative to drastic c...

We give a proof of Guenin's theorem characterizing weakly bipartite graphs by not having an odd-K5 minor. The proof curtails the technical and case-checking parts of Guenin...
In Graph Minors III, Robertson and Seymour write:"It seems that the tree-width of a planar graph and the tree-width of its geometric dual are approximately equal -- indeed, w...
We consider the question of characterizing Pfaffian graphs. We exhibit an infinite family of non-Pfaffian graphs minimal with respect to the matching minor relation. This is in sha...
