Abstract

AbstractLet be a graph with , and let be obtained from by gluing in vertex‐disjoint copies of . We prove that if contains at most one odd cycle of length exceeding 3, or if contains at most three triangles, then . This proves the Strong Coloring Conjecture for such graphs . For graphs with that are not covered by our theorem, we prove an approximation result towards the conjecture.
