Duchet-type theorems for powers of HHD-free graphs. (English)
[J] Discrete Math. 177, No.1-3, 9-16 (1997). [ISSN 0012-365X]
The $k$th power of a graph $G$, denoted $G\sp k$, is the graph with the vertex set $V(G)$ in which two vertices are adjacent if their distance in $G$ is at most $k$. The authors prove three results of ``Duchet-type''; that is, results which read: ``If $G\sp k$ contains no induced subgraph of a certain type (say, long cycles), then so does $G\sp{k+2}$.'' They do so by employing an idea of Duchet: One can define a new graph $(G\sp k)(X)$, with vertices certain subsets of $V(G)$, that is isomorphic to $G\sp{k+2}$, and work out the results in $(G\sp k)(X)$.
