Forbidden Induced Pairs for Perfectness and $\omega$-Colourability of Graphs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We characterise the pairs of graphs $\{ X, Y \}$ such that all \}$-free (distinct from $C_5$) are perfect. Similarly, we $\omega$-colourable (that is, their chromatic number is equal to clique number). More generally, show characterizations for perfectness and $\omega$-colourability connected which independence at least~$3$, distinct an odd cycle, order least $n_0$, similar characterisations subject each subset these additional constraints. (The classes non-hereditary different.) build on recent results Brause et al. K_{1,3}, graphs, use Ramsey's Theorem Strong Perfect Graph as main tools. relate present known forbidden $\chi$-boundedness deciding $k$-colourability in polynomial time.

Pairs of forbidden induced subgraphs for homogeneously traceable graphs
AgraphG is called homogeneously traceable if for every vertex v ofG,G contains aHamilton path starting from v. For a graphH , we say thatG isH-free ifG contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to H . For a family H of graphs, G is called H-free if G is H-free for every H ∈ H . Determining families of graphs H such that every H-free graph G has some graph property has been a popular research topi...
متن کاملForbidden induced bipartite graphs
Given a fixed bipartite graph H, we study the asymptotic speed of growth of the number of bipartite graphs on n vertices which do not contain an induced copy of H. Whenever H contains either a cycle or the bipartite complement of a cycle, the speed of growth is 2Ω(n 6 5 ). For every other bipartite graph except the path on seven vertices, we are able to find both upper and lower bounds of the f...
متن کاملPairs of forbidden subgraphs and 2-connected supereulerian graphs
Let G be a 2-connected claw-free graph. We show that • if G is N1,1,4-free or N1,2,2-free or Z5-free or P8-free, respectively, then G has a spanning eulerian subgraph (i.e. a spanning connected even subgraph) or its closure is the line graph of a graph in a family of well-defined graphs, • if the minimum degree δ(G) ≥ 3 and G is N2,2,5-free or Z9-free, respectively, then G has a spanning euleri...
متن کاملForbidden pairs for 1-s2.0-S0012365X11004766-si1-connected Hamiltonian graphs
For an integer kwith k ≥ 2 and a pair of connected graphs F1 and F2 of order at least three, we say that {F1, F2} is a k-forbidden pair if every k-connected {F1, F2}-free graph, except possibly for a finite number of exceptions, is Hamiltonian. If no exception arises, {F1, F2} is said to be a strong k-forbidden pair. The 2-forbidden pairs and the strong 2-forbidden pairs are determined by Faudr...
متن کاملPerfectness of clustered graphs
Given a clustered graph (G,V), that is, a graph G = (V,E) together with a partition V of its vertex set, the selective coloring problem consists in choosing one vertex per cluster such that the chromatic number of the subgraph induced by the chosen vertices is minimum. This problem can be formulated as a covering problem with a 0-1 matrix M(G,V). Nevertheless, we observe that, given (G,V), it i...
