Isomorphism Testing for Graphs Excluding Small Minors
share
We prove that there is a graph isomorphism test running in time n^polylog(h) on n-vertex graphs excluding some h-vertex graph as a minor. Previously known bounds were n^poly(h) (Ponomarenko, 1988) and n^polylog(n) (Babai, STOC 2016). For the algorithm we combine recent advances in the group-theoretic graph isomorphism machinery with new graph-theoretic arguments.
