## Abstract Surgical techniques are often effective in constructing genus embeddings of cartesian products of bipartite graphs. In this paper we present a general construction that is “close” to a genus embedding for cartesian products, where each factor is “close” to being bipartite. In specializi
It is proved that for every constant ~ > 0 and every graph G on n vertices which contains no odd cycles of length smaller than ~n, G can be made bipartite by removing (15/~}ln(10/~)) vertices. This resuIt is best possible except for a constant factor. Moreover, it is shown that one can destroy all o
Let H be a fixed graph. We show that any H-minor free graph G of high enough girth has circular chromatic number arbitrarily close to two. Equivalently, each such graph G admits a homomorphism to a large odd circuit. In particular, graphs of high girth and of bounded genus, or of bounded tree width,
