introduction: during the past few years, an increasing body of evidence has suggested a possible role for human herpes virus 6 (hhv-6) in multiple sclerosis (ms) pathogenesis. despite the many reports supporting the relationship between hhv-6 and ms, this association has not been definitely proved or refuted, and the matter remains unresolved. the current study was aimed to investigate any rela...

Erdös conjectured that if G is a triangle free graph of chromatic number at least k ≥ 3, then it contains an odd cycle of length at least k2−o(1) [12, 14]. Nothing better than a linear bound ([3], Problem 5.1.55 in [15]) was so far known. We make progress on this conjecture by showing that G contains an odd cycle of length at least O(k log log k). Erdös’ conjecture is known to hold for graphs w...
