We prove that a 2K 2 minimal imperfect Berge graph (if any) contains a K 6 : 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 induced subgraphs are perf...
