2 402 G. Chen, R.J. Gould, K. Kawarabayash, K. Ota,... Abstract Let G be a 2-connected graph of order n satsfyng α(g) = a κ(g), where α(g) and κ(g) are the ndependence number and the connectvty of G, respectvely, and let r(m, n) denote the Ramsey number. The well-known Chvátal-Erdős Theorem states that G has a hamltonan cycle. In ths paper, we extend ths theorem, and prove that G has a 2-factor wth a specfed number of components f n s suffcently large. More precsely, we prove that (1) f n k r(a + 4, a + 1), then G has a 2-factor wth k components, and (2) f n r(2a + 3, a + 1) + 3(k 1), then G has a 2-factor wth k components such that all components but one have order three. Keywords: Chvátal-Erdős condton, 2-factor, hamltonan cycle, Ramsey number Mathematcs Subject Classfcaton: Prmary: 05C38; Secondary: 05C40, 05C45, 05C Introducton For a graph G, we denote by α(g) and κ(g) the ndependence number and the connectvty of G, respectvely. If the nequalty α(g) κ(g) holds, we say that G satsfes the Chvátal-Erdős condton, n vew of the followng well-known theorem. Theorem A (Chvátal-Erdős Theorem [4]). Every 2-connected graph G satsfyng α(g) κ(g) has a hamltonan cycle. If every par of nonadjacent vertces x and y n a graph G of order n satsfy deg G x + deg G y n, then we say that G satsfes Ore s condton. It s also well-known that every graph of order at least three satsfyng Ore s condton has a hamltonan cycle. Theorem B (Ore s Theorem [8]). Let G be a graph of order n 3. If deg G x + deg G y n for every par of nonadjacent vertces x and y of G, then G has a hamltonan cycle. Though the Chvátal-Erdős condton and Ore s condton look qute dfferent, Bondy [1] proved that they are not ndependent. Theorem C (Bondy [1]). Every graph of order at least three satsfyng Ore s condton satsfes the Chvátal-Erdős condton.
3 The Chvátal-Erdős Condton and 2-Factors wth A hamltonan cycle s a 2-factor wth exactly one component. From ths pont of vew, snce the Chvátal-Erdős condton and Ore s condton guarantee the exstence of a 2-factor wth one component, we may suspect that both condtons guarantee the exstence of a 2-factor wth a specfed number of components. Here we remark that we have to take the order of a graph nto account. For example, a balanced complete bpartte graph of order at least four satsfes both the Chvátal-Erdős condton and Ore s condton whle t has a 2-factor wth k components only f ts order s at least 4k. Therefore, when we consder ths knd of problem, we always have to consder a graph of a suffcently large order. For Ore s condton, Brandt et al. [2] proved the followng extenson of Theorem B. Theorem D (Brandt et al. [2]). Let k be a postve nteger. Then every graph of order at least 4k satsfyng Ore s condton has a 2-factor wth k components. Snce the balanced complete bpartte graph of order 4k 2 does not have a 2-factor wth k components, the bound 4k of the order n the above theorem s almost best-possble. Later, Enomoto [6] mproved the bound to 4k 1, whch s best-possble. Whle the extenson of Ore s Theorem to a 2-factor wth a specfed number of components has been studed n detal, lttle s known about the extenson of the Chvátal-Erdős Theorem n the same drecton. Thus, we present the followng conjecture. Conjecture 1. For each postve nteger k, there exsts a postve nteger f(k) such that every 2-connected graph G of order at least f(k) satsfyng α(g) κ(g) has a 2-factor wth exactly k components. Actually, Kaneko and Yoshmoto [7] tackled ths conjecture for k = 2, and almost solved t. Theorem E (Kaneko and Yoshmoto [7]). Every 4-connected graph of order at least sx satsfyng α(g) κ(g) has a 2-factor wth two components. Recently, Egawa [5] has ponted out that the proof of Theorem E n [7] msses one case to be consdered. But even f ths possble flaw s fxed, ther proof technque does not work for graphs of connectvty two or three. Therefore, they posed the followng conjecture.
4 404 G. Chen, R.J. Gould, K. Kawarabayash, K. Ota,... Conjecture F. Every 2-connected graph G of suffcently large order satsfyng α(g) κ(g) has a 2-factor wth two components. The purpose of ths paper s to gve a partal soluton to Conjecture 1. Let r(m,n) denote the Ramsey number. Theorem 2. Let k be a postve nteger and let G be a 2-connected graph wth α(g) = a κ(g). (1) If G k r(a + 4,a + 1), then G has a 2-factor wth k components. (2) If G r(2a + 3,a + 1) + 3(k 1), then G has a 2-factor wth k components such that k 1 components have order exactly three. We remark that the above theorem s not a complete soluton of Conjecture 1 snce n the conjecture the lower bound of the order n the assumpton only depends on k, whle n both (1) and (2) of Theorem 2 the lower bound depends not only on k but also on the ndependence number. In ths paper, we actually prove the followng theorem. Theorem 3. Let G be a graph of ndependence number a, and let C be a cycle n G. (1) If C k r(a + 4,a + 1), then there exst k dsjont cycles C 1,...,C k wth V (C) = k =1 V (C ). (2) If C r(2a + 3,a + 1) + 3(k 1), then there exst k dsjont cycles C 1,...,C k such that V (C) = k =1 V (C ) and C = 3 for 1 k 1. We obtan Theorem 2 by applyng Theorem 3 to a hamltonan cycle, whose exstence s guaranteed by the Chvátal-Erdős Theorem. In the next secton, we gve notaton and several defntons whch we use n the proofs. In Secton 3, we prove Theorem Termnology and Defntons For graph-theoretc termnology not explaned n ths paper, we refer the reader to [3]. We defne a walk to be a sequence of vertces for whch consecutve vertces are adjacent. We express a walk as a sequence of vertces. Let C = x 0 x 1...x l 1 x 0 be a cycle wth an mpled orentaton. We defne x + = x +1, x = x 1 and x +n = x +n (subscrpts counted modulo l).
5 The Chvátal-Erdős Condton and 2-Factors wth The subpath x x +1...x j 1 x j n C s denoted by x C xj. The same path traversed n the reverse order s denoted by x j C x. We also adopt the same notaton for a path. When there s no possblty of confuson, we sometmes consder a path and a cycle as graphs. Thus, for example, f x s a vertex n a path P, we wrte x V (P). Let H be a subgraph of a graph G, and let T be a cycle or a path n G. Then for u, v V (T), a subpath u T v s sad to be an H-cluster of T f V (u T v) V (H) and the vertces v and v +, f they exst, are not n H. In other words, an H-cluster s a maxmal subpath of T contaned n H. In ths secton, we prove Theorem Proof Proof of Theorem 3. For (1), we proceed by nducton on k. If k = 1, the concluson s trval. Suppose k 2. Let D be a cycle n G wth V (D) = V (C), and let P be a subpath of D of order r(a + 4,a + 1). Let u and v be the frst and the last vertces of P, respectvely. Also, let H be the subgraph of G nduced by V (P). Then ether there exsts a clque of order a + 4 n H, or there exsts an ndependent set of order a + 1 n H. However, snce α(h) α(g) = a < a + 1, the latter case does not occur, and hence there exsts a clque K of order a + 4 n H. Let I = {I 1,...,I l } be the set of K-clusters of P, and let x and y be the frst and the last vertces of I, respectvely (1 l). Now we choose (D,P,K) so that l, the number of K-clusters, s as small as possble. Suppose I has two K-clusters of order at least two. We may assume I 1 2 and I 2 2, and I 1 precedes I 2 along P. Let C 1 = y 1P x2 y 1 and C = x + 2 Dy 1 x + 2. Then C 1 P = r(a + 4,a + 1) and C (k 1) r(a + 4,a + 1). By the nducton hypothess, C can be decomposed nto k 1 dsjont cycles C 2,...,C k. Then C 1, C 2,...,C k gve a requred decomposton. Therefore, we may assume that P has at most one K-cluster of order two or more. We may assume that I 1 s a largest K-cluster. Then I 2,...,I l all consst of sngle vertces. Suppose I 1 5. Let C 1 = x + 1 x++ 1 x +3 1 x+ 1 and C = x 1 x +4 1 Dx1. Then C 1 = 3 and C k r(a + 4,a + 1) 3 (k 1) r(a + 4,a + 1). By the nducton hypothess, C can be decomposed nto k 1 dsjont cycles C 2,...,C k. Then C 1, C 2,...,C k gve a requred decomposton of C.
6 406 G. Chen, R.J. Gould, K. Kawarabayash, K. Ota,... Therefore, we may assume I 1 4. It follows that K = k =1 I l + 3. Snce K = a + 4, we have l a + 1. Let A = {y 1 +,...,y+ l }. Then A a + 1 > α(g) and hence A s not an ndependent set. Let y + y+ j E(G), 1 < j l. We may assume that I precedes I j along P. Let C = y j + Dy y jdy + y j + and P = u P y y j P y + y j + P v. Then V (C ) = V (D) = V (C), P s a subpath of C of order r(a + 4,a + 1) and the set of K-clusters of P s I {I,I j } {x P y y j P x }. Ths contradcts the mnmalty of the number of K-clusters, and the concluson for (1) follows. For (2), we also proceed by nducton on k. The concluson trvally holds f k = 1. Suppose k 2. Let H be the subgraph nduced by V (C). Snce H = C r(2a + 3,a + 1) + 3(k 1) > r(2a + 3,a + 1), ether there exsts a clque of order 2a + 3 n H, or there exsts an ndependent set of order a+1 n H. However, snce α(h) α(g) < a + 1, the latter case does not occur. Therefore, H has a clque K of order 2a + 3. Note that H has a hamltonan cycle C. Take a hamltonan cycle D of H so that (a) the number of K-clusters of D s as small as possble, and (b) the order of a largest K-cluster of D s as large as possble, subject to (a). Let I = {I 1,I 2,...,I l } be the set of K-clusters of D, and let x and y be the frst and the last vertces of I, respectvely (1 l). Suppose some K-cluster I has fve or more vertces. Let C 1 = x + x++ x +3 x + and C = x x +4 Dx. Then C 1 = 3 and C r(2a + 3, a + 1) + 3(k 2). By the nducton hypothess, C can be decomposed nto k 1 cycles C 2,...,C k such that C 2 = C 3 = = C k 1 = 3. Then C 1, C 2,...,C k form a requred cycle decomposton. Therefore, we may assume that I 4 for each, 1 k. We may assume that I 1 s a largest K-cluster. Assume I 3 for some, 2 l. Let D = y 1Dx x ++ Dx1 x + x+ 1 Dy1. Then D s a hamltonan cycle of H. Furthermore, D has the same number of K-clusters as D and x 1 x + x+ 1 Dy1 s a K-cluster, whch s larger than I 1. Ths contradcts the choce (b) of D. Therefore, I 2 for each, 2 l. It follows that 2a + 3 = K = l =1 I 2l + 2, whch mples l a + 1. Then by the same argument as n the last part of the proof of (1), we have a hamltonan cycle C of H such that the number of K-clusters of C s l 1. Ths contradcts the choce (a) of D. Therefore, the concluson follows.
