We characterize the triangle-free graphs with neither induced path of six vertices nor induced cycle of six vertices and the triangle-free graphs without induced path of six vertices in terms of dominating subgraphs.

## Abstract A path graph is the intersection graph of subpaths of a tree. In 1970, Renz asked for a characterization of path graphs by forbidden induced subgraphs. We answer this question by determining the complete list of graphs that are not path graphs and are minimal with this property. Β© 2009
## Abstract Let Ξ³(__G__) ΞΉ(__G__) be the domination number and independent domination number of a graph (__G__), respectively. A graph (__G__) is called domination perfect if Ξ³(__H__) = ΞΉ(__H__), for every induced subgraph __H__ of (__G__). There are many results giving a partial characterization o
Let Ξ²(G) and Ξ(G) be the independence number and the upper domination number of a graph G, respectively. A graph G is called Ξ-perfect if Ξ²(H) = Ξ(H), for every induced subgraph H of G. The class of Ξ-perfect graphs generalizes such well-known classes of graphs as strongly perfect graphs, absorbantl
If 9 is a collection of connected graphs, and if a graph G does not contain any member of 9 as an induced subgraph, then G is said to be F-free. The members of f in this situation are called forbidden subgraphs. In a previous paper (Gould and Harris, 1995) the authors demonstrated two families of tr
