Marc Distel thesis submission
Sunday, February 8th, 2026Congratulations to Marc Distel who has submitted his PhD thesis entitled “Global Structure of Minor-Free Graphs and Beyond” (supervised by David Wood). Marc’s candidature has been a tremendous success, producing 16 papers, including publications in Advances in Combinatorics; Combinatorics, Probability & Computing; Electronic J. Combinatorics; Innovations in Graph Theory; and SIAM J. Discrete Math. The thesis is based on five single-authored papers within the themes of coarse graph theory and graph product structure theory, which have been hot topics in structural graph theory over the past few years.
