Graph editing to a fixed target

For a fixed graph H, the H-Minor Edit problem takes as input a graph G and an integer k and asks whether G can be modified into H by a total of at most k edge contractions, edge deletions and vertex deletions. Replacing edge contractions by vertex dissolutions yields the H-Topological Minor Edit problem. For each problem we show polynomial-time solvable and NP-complete cases depending on the choice of H. Moreover, when G is AT-free, chordal or planar, we show that H-Minor Edit is polynomial-time solvable for all graphs H.
