dc.description.abstract | The graphs with no five-vertex induced path are still not understood. But in the triangle-free case, we can do this and one better; we give an explicit construction for all triangle-free graphs with no six-vertex induced path. Here are three examples: the 16-vertex Clebsch graph, the graph obtained from an 8-cycle by making opposite vertices adjacent, and the graph obtained from a complete bipartite graph by subdividing a perfect matching. We show that every connected triangle-free graph with no six-vertex induced path is an induced subgraph of one of these three (modulo some twinning and duplication). | en |
