Graphs with bounded tree-width and large odd-girth are almost bipartite
We prove that for every k and every ε > 0, there exists g such that every graph with tree-width at most k and odd-girth at least g has circular chromatic number at most 2 + ε...

Directed tree-width examples
In [1] Johnson, Robertson, Seymour and Thomas define the notion of directed tree-width dtw(D) of a directed graph D. They ask whether dtw(D) ≥ k − 1 implies that D has a have...

Matroid tree-width
Abstract. We show that the tree-width of a graph can be defined without reference to graph vertices, and hence the notion of tree-width can be naturally extended to matroids. (This...

Rank-width and tree-width of H-minor-free graphs
We prove that for any fixed r 2, the tree-width of graphs not containing Kr as a topological minor (resp. as a subgraph) is bounded by a linear (resp. polynomial) function of the...

Tree-width of hypergraphs and surface duality
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...

Query Evaluation via Tree-Decompositions
A number of efficient methods for evaluating first-order and monadic-second order queries on finite relational structures are based on tree-decompositions of structures or quer...

D-Width: A More Natural Measure for Directed Tree Width
Due to extensive research on tree-width for undirected graphs and due to its many applications in various fields it has been a natural desire for many years to generalize the idea...

Clique-Width and Parity Games
The question of the exact complexity of solving parity games is one of the major open problems in system verification, as it is equivalent to the problem of model-checking the mod...
