Finding the defective chromatic number is a fundamental graph partitioning problem and received attention recently partially due to Hadwiger’s conjecture about coloring minor-closed families. In this paper, we prove that the defective chromatic number of any minor-closed family equals the simple lower bound obtained by the standard construction, confirming a conjecture of Ossona de Mendez, Oum, and Wood. This result provides the optimal list of unavoidable finite minors for infinite graphs that cannot be partitioned into a fixed finite number of induced subgraphs with uniformly bounded maximum degree. As corollaries about clustered coloring, we obtain a linear relation between the clustered chromatic number of any minor-closed family and the tree-depth of its forbidden minors, improving an earlier exponential bound proved by Norin, Scott, Seymour, and Wood and confirming the planar case of their conjecture.</p>","PeriodicalId":50666,"journal":{"name":"Combinatorica","volume":"244 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139938771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
