چکیده
Let G be a graph of order n. Let lpt(G) be the minimum cardinality of a set X of vertices of G such that X intersects every longest path of G and define lct(G) analogously for cycles instead of paths. We prove that • lpt(G) 6 ⌈

Girth , minimum degree and transversals of longest paths ∗
We provide conditions on the minimum degree, the girth and the length of a longest path for a digraph to have the following property: Every longest path intersects every maximal independent set. Digraphs with this property satisfy, in a strong sense, the Laborde-PayanXuong conjecture (see [10]).
متن کاملIndependent transversals of longest paths in locally semicomplete and locally transitive digraphs
We present several results concerning the Laborde-Payan-Xuang conjecture stating that in every digraph there exists an independent set of vertices intersecting every longest path. The digraphs we consider are defined in terms of local semicompleteness and local transitivity. We also look at oriented graphs for which the length of a longest path does not exceed 4.
متن کاملTransversals of Longest Paths
Let lpt(G) be the minimum cardinality of a set of vertices that intersects all longest paths in a graph G. Let ω(G) be the size of a maximum clique in G, and tw(G) be the treewidth of G. We prove that lpt(G) ≤ max{1,ω(G)− 2} when G is a connected chordal graph; that lpt(G) = 1 when G is a connected bipartite permutation graph or a connected full substar graph; and that lpt(G) ≤ tw(G) for any co...
متن کاملIntersecting longest paths and longest cycles: A survey
This is a survey of results obtained during the last 45 years regarding the intersection behaviour of all longest paths, or all longest cycles, in connected graphs. Planar graphs and graphs of higher connectivity receive special attention. Graphs embeddable in the cubic lattice of arbitrary dimension, and graphs embeddable in the triangular or hexagonal lattice of the plane are also discussed. ...
متن کاملFPT Algorithms for Path-Transversals and Cycle-Transversals Problems in Graphs
In this article, we consider problems on graphs of the following form: given a graph, remove p edges/vertices to achieve some property. The first kind of problems are separation problems on graphs, where we aim at separating distinguished vertices in a graph. The second kind of problems are feedback set problems on group-labelled graphs, where we aim at breaking nonnull cycles in a graph. We ob...
