The strong perfect graph conjecture holds for diamonded odd cycle-free graphs

We define a diamonded odd cycle to be an odd cycle C with exactly two chords and either a) C has length five and the two chords are non-crossing; or b) C has length greater than five and has chords (x,y) and (x,z) with (y,z) an edge of C and there exists a node w not on C adjacent to y and C, but not x. In this paper, we show that given a diamonded odd cycle-free graph G, G is perfect if and only if G does not have an induced subgraph isomorphic to an odd hole with size greater than three.
