Induced minor models. I. Structural properties and algorithmic consequences
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A graph H is an induced minor of G if there exists an induced minor model of H in G , that is, a collection of pairwise disjoint subsets of vertices of G labeled by the vertices of H , each inducing a connected subgraph in G , such that two vertices of H are adjacent if and only if there is an edge in G between the corresponding subsets. In this paper, we investigate structural properties of induced minor models, including bounds on treewidth and chromatic number of the subgraphs induced by minimal induced minor models. As algorithmic applications of our structural results, we make use of recent developments regarding tree-independence number to show that if H is the 4-wheel, the 5-vertex complete graph minus an edge, or a complete bipartite graph K 2 , q , then there is a polynomial-time algorithm to find in a given graph G an induced minor model of H in G , if there is one. We also develop an alternative polynomial-time algorithm for recognizing graphs that do not contain K 2 , 3 as an induced minor, which revolves around the idea of detecting the induced subgraphs whose presence is forced when the input graph contains K 2 , 3 as an induced minor. It turns out that all these induced subgraphs are Truemper configurations.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
