Towards a characterisation of Pfaffian graphs
Charles H. C. Little, Franz Rendl, Ilse Fischer
Abstract
A bipartite graph G is known to be Pfaffian if and only if it does not contain an even subdivision H of K3,3 such that G - VH contains a 1-factor. However a general characterisation of Pfaffian graphs in terms of forbidden subgraphs is currently not known. In this paper we describe a possible approach to the derivation of such a characterisation. We also extend the characterisation for bipartite graphs to a slightly more general class of graphs.
