Murky graphs

From MaRDI portal





A graph is murky if neither the graph nor its complement contains a chordless cycle with five vertices or a chordless path with six vertices. A star cutset in a graph G is a set C of vertices, such that G - C is disconnected, and such that some vertex in C is adjacent to all remaining vertices in C. A graph is called unbreakable if it has more than two vertices and if neither the graph nor its complement has a star cutset. The main result is a proof that murky graphs are perfect. A characterization of unbreakable murky graphs is also presented.
