Intersecting longest paths and longest cycles: A survey
نویسندگان
چکیده
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. Results concerning the case when not all, but just some longest paths or cycles are intersected, for example two or three of them, are also reported.

Independent sets and non-augmentable paths in generalizations of tournaments
We study different classes of digraphs, which are generalizations of tournaments, to have the property of possessing a maximal independent set intersecting every non-augmentable path (in particular, every longest path). The classes are the arclocal tournament, quasi-transitive, locally in-semicomplete (out-semicomplete), and semicomplete k-partite digraphs. We present results on strongly intern...
متن کاملTransversals of Longest Paths and Cycles
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 ⌈
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 کاملCycles in 3-anti-circulant digraphs
A digraph D is a 3-anti-circulant digraph, if for any four distinct vertices x1, x2, x3, x4 ∈ V (D), x1 → x2 ← x3 → x4 implies x4 → x1. In this paper, we characterize the structure of 3-anti-circulant digraphs containing a cycle factor and show that the structure is very close to semicomplete and semicomplete bipartite digraphs. Laborde et al. conjectured that every digraph has an independent s...
متن کاملLattice graphs with Gallai ’ s property
We investigate graphs with the property that all longest paths or all longest cycles have empty intersection. In this paper, we find such graphs as subgraphs of cubic lattices.
