A Note on Hadwiger's Conjecture

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

Hadwiger's Conjecture states that every Kt+1K_{t+1}-minor-free graph is tt-colourable. It is widely considered to be one of the most important conjectures in graph theory. If every Kt+1K_{t+1}-minor-free graph has minimum degree at most δδ, then every Kt+1K_{t+1}-minor-free graph is (δ+1)(δ+1)-colourable by a minimum-degree-greedy algorithm. The purpose of this note is to prove a slightly better upper bound.
