2 Jáno Pach, Radoš Radoičić, and Géza Tóh 2 Ordinary and opological minor A graph H i aid o b a minor of anohr graph G if H can b obaind from a ubgraph of G by a ri of dg conracion. If a ubgraph of G can b obaind from H by rplacing i dg wih indpndn pah bwn hir ndpoin, hn H i calld a opological minor of G. Clarly, a opological minor of G i alo i (ordinary) minor. If a graph G wih n vric ha no minor iomorphic o K 5 or o K 3,3, hn by Kuraowki horm i i planar and i numbr of dg canno cd 3n 6. I follow from an old rul of Wagnr ha h am concluion hold undr h wakr aumpion ha G ha no K 5 minor. A fw yar ago Madr [M98] provd h following famou conjcur of Dirac: Thorm 2.1.

If w only aum ha G ha no opological K r minor for om r > 5, w can ill conclud ha G i par, i.., i numbr of dg i a mo linar in n. Thorm 2.2.

Morovr, Komló and Szmrédi howd ha h abov amn i ru wih any poiiv conan c > 1/4, providd ha r i larg nough. Apar from h valu of h conan, hi horm i harp, a i hown by h union of pairwi dijoin copi of a compl bipari graph of iz roughly r 2. W hav a br bound on h numbr of dg, undr h rongr aumpion ha G ha no K r minor. Thorm 2.3.

Th horm i harp up o h conan. (Warning! Th lr c and C ud in vral amn will dno unrlad poiiv conan.) Rvring Thorm 2.3, w obain ha vry graph wih n vric and mor han cr log rn dg ha a K r minor.

Wha happn if w rla hi condiion and w allow r croing pr dg, for om fid r 0? Thorm 3.1. [PT97] L r b a naural numbr and l G b a impl opological graph of n vric, in which vry dg cro a mo r ohr. Thn, for any r 4, w hav E(G) (r + 3)(n 2). Th ca r = 0 i Eulr horm, which i harp. In h ca r = 1, udid in [PT97] and indpndnly by Gärnr, Thil, and Ziglr (pronal communicaion), h abov bound can b aaind for all n 12. Th rul i alo harp for r = 2, providd ha n 5 (mod 15) i ufficinly larg ( Figur 1).

For vry larg valu of r, a much br uppr bound can b dducd from h following horm of Ajai-Chváal-Nwborn-Szmrédi [ACNS82] and Lighon [L84]: any opological graph wih n vric and > 4n dg ha a la conan im 3 /n 2 croing. Corollary 3.2. [PRTT02] Any opological graph wih n vric, who ach dg cro a mo r ohr, ha a mo 4 rn dg. On can alo obain a linar uppr bound for h numbr of dg of a opological graph undr h wakr aumpion ha no dg can cro mor han r ohr dg incidn o h am vr. Thi can b furhr gnralizd, a follow. Thorm 3.3.

Thorm 3.7 can alo b ndd in anohr dircion: i rmain ru for vry opological graph G wih no r + 2 dg uch ha ach of h fir r dg cro h la wo and h la wo dg cro ach ohr. Of cour, h conan C in h horm now dpnd on r [PRT02]. All horm in hi cion provid (uually linar) uppr bound on h numbr of dg of opological graph aifying crain condiion.

On can rla hi condiion by auming ha G ha no r pairwi dijoin dg, for om fid r 2. For r = 2, i wa provd by Hopf-Pannwiz [HP34] ha vry graph aifying hi propry ha a mo n dg, and ha hi bound i harp. For r = 3, h fir linar bound on h numbr of dg of uch graph wa ablihd by Alon-Erdő [AE89], which wa lar improvd o 3n by Goddard- Kachalki-Kliman [GKK96]. For gnral r, h fir linar bound wa ablihd in [PT94]. Th b currnly known ima i h following: Thorm 4.3. (Tóh [T00]) Evry gomric graph wih n vric and no r pairwi dijoin dg ha a mo 2 9 (r 1) 2 n dg.
