AI总结:

本文提出一套通用机制,将关于 $k$-连通图($1 \leq k \leq 4$)的结构命题加强为局部生成版本,通过引入以 $X$ 为根的 minor 概念,并结合 Tutte 路径理论,导出了度受限树、哈密顿路径与圈及 $2$-连通子图等六个著名结果的局部生成版本。

摘要:

关于图中各类生成子图存在性的结果是结构图论中的里程碑,并已在多个方向上得到拓展。在本文中,我们考虑此类命题的“局部”版本。例如,1966年 D. W. Barnette 证明了一个 $3$-连通平面图包含一棵最大度至多为 $3$ 的生成树。该命题的局部翻译是:如果 $G$ 是一个平面图,$X$ 是 $G$ 的指定顶点子集,且在 $G$ 中无法通过移除 $2$ 个或更少的 $G$ 的顶点将 $X$ 分离,那么 $G$ 有一棵包含 $X$ 所有顶点且最大度至多为 $3$ 的树。我们的结果构成了一套通用机制,用于将关于 $k$-连通图(对于 $1 \leq k \leq 4$)的命题加强为局部生成版本,即包含(非 necessarily 平面)图 $G$ 的集合 $X\subseteq V(G)$ 的子图,其中只有 $X$ 具有高连通性。给定图 $G$ 和 $X\subseteq V(G)$,我们说 $M$ 是 $G$ 的以 $X$ 为根的 minor,如果 $M$ 是 $G$ 的 minor,使得 $M$ 的每个 bag 最多包含 $X$ 的一个顶点,且 $X$ 是所有 bag 并集的子集。我们证明,如果 $X\subseteq V(G)$ 在 $G$ 中无法通过移除少数 $G$ 的顶点被分离,那么 $G$ 有一个以 $X$ 为根的高连通 minor。在平面情形下,将这些研究与 Tutte 路径理论相结合,导出了关于度受限树、哈密顿路径与圈,以及图的 $2$-连通子图的六个著名结果的局部生成版本。

英文摘要:

Results on the existence of various types of spanning subgraphs of graphs are milestones in structural graph theory and have been diversified in several directions. In the present paper, we consider "local" versions of such statements. In 1966, for instance, D. W. Barnette proved that a $3$-connected planar graph contains a spanning tree of maximum degree at most $3$. A local translation of this statement is that if $G$ is a planar graph, $X$ is a subset of specified vertices of $G$ such that $X$ cannot be separated in $G$ by removing $2$ or fewer vertices of $G$, then $G$ has a tree of maximum degree at most $3$ containing all vertices of $X$. Our results constitute a general machinery for strengthening statements about $k$-connected graphs (for $1 \leq k \leq 4$) to locally spanning versions, i.e. subgraphs containing a set $X\subseteq V(G)$ of a (not necessarily planar) graph $G$ in which only $X$ has high connectedness. Given a graph $G$ and $X\subseteq V(G)$, we say $M$ is a minor of $G$ rooted at $X$, if $M$ is a minor of $G$ such that each bag of $M$ contains at most one vertex of $X$ and $X$ is a subset of the union of all bags. We show that $G$ has a highly connected minor rooted at $X$ if $X\subseteq V(G)$ cannot be separated in $G$ by removing a few vertices of $G$. Combining these investigations and the theory of Tutte paths in the planar case yields to locally spanning versions of six well-known results about degree-bounded trees, hamiltonian paths and cycles, and $2$-connected subgraphs of graphs.
