About tree-depth

In this work I present recent scientific papers related to the concept of tree-depth: different characterizations, a game theoretic approach to it and recently discovered applications. The focus in this work is presenting all the ideas in a self-contained way, such that they can be easily understood with little previous knowledge. Apart from that all the ideas are presented in a homogeneous way with clear examples and all the lemmas, some of which didn’t have proofs in the papers, are presented with rigorous proofs.
