Planar Induced Subgraphs of Sparse Graphs
We show that every graph has an induced pseudoforest of at least
vertices, an induced partial 2-tree of at least vertices, and an
induced planar subgraph of at least vertices. These results are
constructive, implying linear-time algorithms to find the respective induced
subgraphs. We also show that the size of the largest -minor-free graph in
a given graph can sometimes be at most .Comment: Accepted by Graph Drawing 2014. To appear in Journal of Graph
