The list linear arboricity of graphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: A linear forest is a forest in which every connected component is a path. The linear arboricity of a graph G is the minimum number of linear forests of G covering all edges. In 1980, Akiyama, Exoo and Harary proposed a conjecture, known as the Linear Arboricity Conjecture (LAC), stating that every d-regular graph G has linear arboricity lceilfracd+12ceil. In 1988, Alon proved that the LAC holds asymptotically. In 1999, the list version of the LAC was raised by An and Wu, which is called the List Linear Arboricity Conjecture. In this article, we prove that the List Linear Arboricity Conjecture holds asymptotically.
