Product structure of graph classes with bounded treewidth

Abstract: We show that many graphs with bounded treewidth can be described as subgraphs of the strong product of a graph with smaller treewidth and a bounded-size complete graph. To this end, define the underlying treewidth of a graph class G to be the minimum non-negative integer c such that, for some function f , for every graph G ∈ G there is a graphWe introduce disjointed coverings of graphs and show they determine the underlying treewidth of any graph class. Using this result, we prove that the class of planar grap… Show more

“…Bounded tree-partition-width implies bounded treewidth, as noted by Seese [69]. This fact easily generalises for c-tree-partition-width; see [12] for a proof. Of course, tw(T) = tpw(T) = 1 for every tree T. But in general, tpw(G) can be much larger than tw(G).…”

“…It is an open problem to determine the underlying treewidth of a given minor-closed class G. It is possible that the clustered chromatic number of G equals the underlying treewidth of G plus 1. This is true for any minor-closed class with underlying treewidth at most 1 by results of Norin, Scott, Seymour, and Wood [58] and Ding and Oporowski [20]; see [12]. See [58] for a conjectured value of the clustered chromatic number of G. It follows from a result of DeVos, Ding, Oporowski, Sanders, Reed, Seymour, and Vertigan [15] that every minor-closed graph class G with underlying treewidth c has clustered chromatic number at most 2(c + 1); see [12].…”
