Abstract

Two boxes in ℝ^d are comparable if one of them is a subset of a translation of the other one. The comparable box dimension of a graph G is the minimum integer d such that G can be represented as a touching graph of comparable axis-aligned boxes in ℝ^d. We show that proper minor-closed classes have bounded comparable box dimension and explore further properties of this notion.
