Abstract
Bollobás and Thomason showed that every 22__k__‐connected graph is k‐linked. Their result used a dense graph minor. In this paper, we investigate the ties between small graph minors and linkages. In particular, we show that a 6‐connected graph with a K minor is 3‐linked. Further, we show that a 7‐connected graph with a K minor is (2,5)‐linked. Finally, we show that a graph of order n and size at least 7__n__−29 contains a K minor. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 49: 75–91, 2005

## Abstract It is well known that any planar graph contains at most __O__(__n__) complete subgraphs. We extend this to an exact characterization: __G__ occurs __O__(__n__) times as a subgraph of any planar graph, if and only if __G__ is three‐connected. We generalize these results to similarly char
