Abstract
We prove that there exists a function f(k)=O(k^2logk) such that for every C4-free graph G and every k∈ℕ, G either contains k vertex-disjoint holes of length at least 6, or a set X of at most f(k) vertices such that G−X has no hole of length at least 6. This answers a question of Kim and Kwon [Erdős-Pósa property of chordless cycles and its applications. JCTB 2020]File allegati a questo prodotto
