Counterexamples Regarding Linked and Lean Tree-Decompositions of Infinite Graphs
Kříž and Thomas showed that every (finite or infinite) graph of tree-width admits a lean tree-decomposition of width . We discuss a number of counterexamples demonstrating the limits of possible generalisations of their result to arbitrary infinite tree-width. In particular, we construct a locally finite, planar, connected graph that has no lean tree-decomposition.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Graph Theory is devoted to a variety of topics in graph theory, such as structural results about graphs, graph algorithms with theoretical emphasis, and discrete optimization on graphs. The scope of the journal also includes related areas in combinatorics and the interaction of graph theory with other mathematical sciences.
A subscription to the Journal of Graph Theory includes a subscription to the Journal of Combinatorial Designs .
