论文摘要

在图的还原序列中,将顶点依次识别,直到图具有一个顶点为止。在每个步骤中,当识别$ u $和$ v $时,每个边缘事件恰好是$ u $和$ v $的一个颜色为红色。 Bonnet,Kim,Thomassé和Watrigant [J. ACM 2022]将图$ g $的双宽度定义为最小整数$ k $,使得$ g $的减少序列最大$ k $。对于任何图表参数$ f $,我们将图$ g $的减少$ f $定义为最小整数$ k $,以使$ g $的减少序列最多具有$ f $ $ f $。我们的重点是具有限制的降低带宽的图形类别,这意味着并且比有限的双宽度(最大程度降低)更强。我们表明,每个适当的次要封闭类都具有降低的带宽限制,这比Bonnet等人的类似结果在质量上要强。在许多情况下,我们还进行了定量改进。例如,平面图的双宽度上的所有上限至少为$ 2^{1000} $。我们表明,平面图最多减少了带宽,最多$ 466 $,最多$ 583 $。我们对Euler属$γ$图表的界限是$ O(γ)$。最后,我们表明,适当的小关闭类中的固定图具有降低带宽(无论顶点程度如何)。特别是,我们表明Euler属$γ$的地图图减少了带宽$ O(γ^4)$。最后,我们通过表明任何无限类别的扩展器(不包括固定完整的两分子段)具有无限型带宽,而最多有界限的扩张器,最多可以将双宽度扩展器具有限制性扩展器,最多可将两分的缩小器分离出双宽度和减少带宽。

In a reduction sequence of a graph, vertices are successively identified until the graph has one vertex. At each step, when identifying $u$ and $v$, each edge incident to exactly one of $u$ and $v$ is coloured red. Bonnet, Kim, Thomassé and Watrigant [J. ACM 2022] defined the twin-width of a graph $G$ to be the minimum integer $k$ such that there is a reduction sequence of $G$ in which every red graph has maximum degree at most $k$. For any graph parameter $f$, we define the reduced $f$ of a graph $G$ to be the minimum integer $k$ such that there is a reduction sequence of $G$ in which every red graph has $f$ at most $k$. Our focus is on graph classes with bounded reduced bandwidth, which implies and is stronger than bounded twin-width (reduced maximum degree). We show that every proper minor-closed class has bounded reduced bandwidth, which is qualitatively stronger than an analogous result of Bonnet et al.\ for bounded twin-width. In many instances, we also make quantitative improvements. For example, all previous upper bounds on the twin-width of planar graphs were at least $2^{1000}$. We show that planar graphs have reduced bandwidth at most $466$ and twin-width at most $583$. Our bounds for graphs of Euler genus $γ$ are $O(γ)$. Lastly, we show that fixed powers of graphs in a proper minor-closed class have bounded reduced bandwidth (irrespective of the degree of the vertices). In particular, we show that map graphs of Euler genus $γ$ have reduced bandwidth $O(γ^4)$. Lastly, we separate twin-width and reduced bandwidth by showing that any infinite class of expanders excluding a fixed complete bipartite subgraph has unbounded reduced bandwidth, while there are bounded-degree expanders with twin-width at most 6.
