✦ Synopsis


The main theorem of this paper gives a forbidden induced subgraph condition on G that is sufficient for chordality of G m . This theorem is a generalization of a theorem of Balakrishnan and Paulraja who had provided this only for m = 2.

We also give a forbidden subgraph condition on G that is sufficient for chordality of G 2m .

Similar conditions on G that are sufficient for G m being an interval graph are also obtained.

In addition it is easy to see, that no family of forbidden (induced) subgraphs of G is necessary for G m being chordal or interval graph.

We give a simple proof that the obvious necessary conditions for a graph to contain the k th power of a Hamiltonian path are sufficient for the class of interval graphs. The proof is based on showing that a greedy algorithm tests for the existence of Hamiltonian path powers in interval graphs. We wi

We prove the result stated in the title. Furthermore, it is proved that for any > 0, there is a 1-tough chordal planar graph G such that the length of a longest cycle of G is less than |V (G )|.
