For a set ~2 of pairwise disjoint sets of ends of an infinite graph, we define the concepts of d-paths and of d-separators, and we determine the maximum number of pairwise disjoint d-path.

Polat, N., A minimax theorem for infinite graphs with ideal points, Discrete Mathematics 103 (1992) 57-65. Let d be a family of sets of ends of an infinite graph, having the property that every element of any member of 1 can be separated from the union of all other members by a finite set of vertices. By defining appropriate concepts of .&paths and of &-separators, we show that there are a set of pairwise disjoint d-paths and an &separator which have the same 'cardinality'.

## Abstract A wellβknown conjecture of ErdΕs states that given an infinite graph __G__ and sets __A__,βββ__V__(__G__), there exists a family of disjoint __A__βββ__B__ paths π together with an __A__βββ__B__ separator __X__ consisting of a choice of one vertex from each path in π . There is a natural
