摘要
A cycle C in a graph G is said to be dominating if E(G - C) = empty set. Enomoto et al. showed that if G is a 2-connected triangle-free graph with alpha(G) <= 2 kappa(G) - 2, then every longest cycle is dominating. But it is unknown whether the condition on the independence number is sharp. In this paper, we show that if G is a 2-connected triangle-free graph with alpha(G) <= 2 kappa(G) - 1, then G has a longest cycle which is dominating. This condition is best possible.
