    Contemporary Mathematics
    Volume: 1471993; 688 pp
    MSC: Primary 05; Secondary 68; 06; 57

    This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS-IMS-SIAM Joint Summer Research Conference on Graph Minors, held at the University of Washington in Seattle in the summer of 1991. Among the topics covered are: algorithms on tree-structured graphs, well-quasi-ordering, logic, infinite graphs, disjoint path problems, surface embeddings, knot theory, graph polynomials, matroid theory, and combinatorial optimization.
