摘要
In this paper, we shall prove that a projective-planar (resp., toroidal) triangulation G has K-6 as a minor if and only if G has no quadrangulation isomorphic to K-4 (resp., K-5) as a subgraph. As an application of the theorems, we can prove that Hadwiger's conjecture is true for projective-planar and toroidal triangulations. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 60: 302-312, 2009
