Minimal unbounded-bb classes in hereditary graph classes

About 14 years old · traced to

A graph class is minimal of unbounded λ\lambda if it has unbounded λ\lambda, while every proper hereditary subclass has bounded λ\lambda. Minimal-class conjecture for λ\lambda. Every graph class of unbounded λ\lambda contains a minimal class of unbounded λ\lambda. The paper presents this as an analogue of the established statement for γ\gamma and does not resolve it.
