The Hadwiger number, chordal graphs and ab-perfection

A graph is chordal if every induced cycle has three vertices. The Hadwiger number is the order of the largest complete minor of a graph. We characterize the chordal graphs in terms of the Hadwiger number and we also characterize the families of graphs such that for each induced subgraph H, (1) the Hadwiger number of H is equal to the maximum clique order of H, (2) the Hadwiger number of H is equal to the achromatic number of H, (3) the b-chromatic number is equal to the pseudoachromatic number, (4) the pseudo-b-chromatic number is equal to the pseudoachromatic number, (5) the Hadwiger number of H is equal to the Grundy number of H, and (6) the b-chromatic number is equal to the pseudo-Grundy number.
