Rank-width and Tree-width of H-minor-free Graphs

Abstract

We prove that for any fixed r>=2, the tree-width of graphs not containing Kr as a topological minor (resp. as a subgraph) is bounded by a linear (resp. polynomial) function of their rank-width. We also present refinements of our bounds for other graph classes such as Kr-minor free graphs and graphs of bounded genus.
