On minimal cutsets in P5-free minimal imperfect graphs
Let G be a minimal imperfect P 5-free graph (i.e. a minimal imperfect graph not containing a path on 5 vertices as induced subgraph) and let S be a minimal cutset of G. In this paper we study several properties of such cutsets, in particular we prove that the subgraph induced by S is connected, contains a P 4 , cannot induce a bipartite subgraph of G .... As a by-product we also give a structur...
متن کاملOn minimal imperfect NP5 graphs
We prove that a minimal imperfect graph containing a vertex which is not on any P 5 has no odd pair. A graph is perfect if the vertices of any induced subgraph H can be colored, in such a way that no two adjacent vertices receive the same color, with a number of colors (denoted by (H)) not exceeding the cardinality !(H) of a maximum clique of H. A graph is minimal imperfect if all its proper in...
متن کاملOn vertex neighborhood in minimal imperfect graphs
Lubiw [11] conjectures that in a minimal imperfect Berge graph, the neighborhood graph N (v) of any vertex v must be connected; this conjecture implies a well known Chvátal’s Conjecture [6] which states that N (v) must contain a P4. In this note we will prove an intermediary conjecture for some classes of minimal imperfect graphs. It is well known that a graph is P4-free if, and only if, every ...
متن کاملOn transversals in minimal imperfect graphs
V. Chv atal proved that no minimal imperfect graph has a small transversal, that is, a set of vertices of cardinality at most + ! 1 which meets every !-clique and every -stable set. In this paper we prove that a slight generalization of this notion of small transversal leads to a conjecture which is as strong as Berge's Strong Perfect Graph Conjecture for a very large class of graphs, although ...
متن کاملOn Critical Edges in Minimal Imperfect Graphs
An edge of a graph is called critical, if deleting it the stability number of the graph increases, and a nonedge is called co-critical, if adding it to the graph the size of the maximum clique increases. We prove in this paper, that the minimal imperfect graphs containing certain configurations of two critical edges and one co-critical nonedge are exactly the odd holes or antiholes. Then we ded...
