A survey of ‐boundedness

A Scott, P Seymour - Journal of Graph Theory, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
If a graph has bounded clique number and sufficiently large chromatic number, what can we
say about its induced subgraphs? András Gyárfás made a number of challenging …

New bounds on the maximum number of edges in k-quasi-planar graphs

A Suk, B Walczak - Computational Geometry, 2015 - Elsevier
A topological graph is k-quasi-planar if it does not contain k pairwise crossing edges. A 20-
year-old conjecture asserts that for every fixed k, the maximum number of edges in a k-quasi …

[HTML][HTML] On the chromatic number of disjointness graphs of curves

J Pach, I Tomon - Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 2020 - Elsevier
Let ω (G) and χ (G) denote the clique number and chromatic number of a graph G,
respectively. The disjointness graph of a family of curves (continuous arcs in the plane) is …

Coloring curves that cross a fixed curve

A Rok, B Walczak - Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2019 - Springer
We prove that for every integer t\geqslant 1 t⩾ 1, the class of intersection graphs of curves in
the plane each of which crosses a fixed curve in at least one and at most t points is χ χ …

Grounded L-Graphs Are Polynomially -Bounded

J Davies, T Krawczyk, R McCarty, B Walczak - Discrete & Computational …, 2023 - Springer
A grounded L-graph is the intersection graph of a collection of “L” shapes whose topmost
points belong to a common horizontal line. We prove that every grounded L-graph with …

Coloring Triangle-Free Rectangle Overlap Graphs with Colors

T Krawczyk, A Pawlik, B Walczak - Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2015 - Springer
Recently, it was proved that triangle-free intersection graphs of nn line segments in the
plane can have chromatic number as large as Θ (\log\log n) Θ (log log n). Essentially the …

Outerstring graphs are χ-bounded

A Rok, B Walczak - Proceedings of the thirtieth annual symposium on …, 2014 - dl.acm.org
An outerstring graph is an intersection graph of curves lying in a halfplane with one endpoint
on the boundary of the halfplane. It is proved that the outerstring graphs are χ-bounded, that …

Outerstring Graphs are -Bounded

A Rok, B Walczak - SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2019 - SIAM
An outerstring graph is an intersection graph of curves that lie in a common half-plane and
have one endpoint on the boundary of that half-plane. We prove that the class of outerstring …

Conflict-free coloring of string graphs

C Keller, A Rok, S Smorodinsky - Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2021 - Springer
Conflict-free coloring (in short, CF-coloring) of a graph G=(V, E) G=(V, E) is a coloring of V
such that the punctured neighborhood of each vertex contains a vertex whose color differs …
