Difference of forbidden pairs containing a claw

When we study forbidden subgraph conditions guaranteeing graphs to have some properties, a claw (or $K_{1,3}$) frequently appears as one of forbidden subgraphs. Recently, Furuya and Tsuchiya compared two classes generated by different forbidden pairs containing a claw, and characterized one of such classes. In this paper, we give such characterization for three new classes. Furthermore, we give applications of our characterizations to some forbidden subgraph problems.
