论文摘要
We confirm a conjecture of Gartland and Lokshtanov [arXiv:2007.08761]: if for a hereditary graph class $\mathcal{G}$ there exists a constant $k$ such that no member of $\mathcal{G}$ contains a $k$-creature as an induced subgraph or a $k$-skinny-ladder as an induced minor, then there exists a多项式$ p $,以使每个$ g \ in \ mathcal {g} $最多包含$ p(| v(g)|)$最小分隔符。由于Fomin,Todinca和Villanger的结果[Siam J. Comput。 [2015]后者需要以最大重量独立集,反馈顶点集和许多其他问题的多项式时间算法的存在,并且仅限于$ \ Mathcal {g} $的输入图。此外,如Gartland和Lokshtanov所示,我们的结果暗示了遗传图类别的完整二分法,这是由一组有限的禁止的诱导子图(承认最小分隔符数量的多项式限制)定义的,并包含具有数量的许多图形,具有数量的数量数量,具有指数分隔符的数量)。
We confirm a conjecture of Gartland and Lokshtanov [arXiv:2007.08761]: if for a hereditary graph class $\mathcal{G}$ there exists a constant $k$ such that no member of $\mathcal{G}$ contains a $k$-creature as an induced subgraph or a $k$-skinny-ladder as an induced minor, then there exists a polynomial $p$ such that every $G \in \mathcal{G}$ contains at most $p(|V(G)|)$ minimal separators. By a result of Fomin, Todinca, and Villanger [SIAM J. Comput. 2015] the latter entails the existence of polynomial-time algorithms for Maximum Weight Independent Set, Feedback Vertex Set and many other problems, when restricted to an input graph from $\mathcal{G}$. Furthermore, as shown by Gartland and Lokshtanov, our result implies a full dichotomy of hereditary graph classes defined by a finite set of forbidden induced subgraphs into tame (admitting a polynomial bound of the number of minimal separators) and feral (containing infinitely many graphs with exponential number of minimal separators).
