*********************************** * Princeton Discrete Math Seminar * *********************************** Speaker: Tung Nguyen (Princeton) Thursday 9th November, 3:00 in Fine Hall 224. Title: Erdős-Hajnal for graphs with no five-vertex path We discuss a proof of the Erdős-Hajnal conjecture for the five-vertex path; that is, every n-vertex graph with no induced five-vertex path contains a clique or stable set of size at least n^c. This completes the verification of the Erdős-Hajnal property of all five-vertex graphs. Joint work with Alex Scott and Paul Seymour. ---------------------------------- Anyone wishing to be added to or removed from the mailing list should contact Paul Seymour (pds@math.princeton.edu)
