Forbidden toroidal minors

417 Views Asked by At

A finite graph is planar if and only if it does not have $K_5$ or $K_{3,3}$ as a minor. Is there a (finite) set of minors that can classify if a graph is toroidal?

Yes, see Robertson-Seymour theorem. Additionally

The complete set of forbidden minors for toroidal graphs remains unknown, but contains at least 16000 graphs.
