## Abstract We prove in this note that the linear vertexβarboricity of any planar graph is at most three, which confirms a conjecture due to Broere and Mynhardt, and others.

Abstract
The linear vertexβarboricity Ο(G) of a graph G is defined to be the minimum number of subsets into which the vertex set of G can be partitioned such that each subset induces a linear forest. In this paper, we give the sharp upper and lower bounds for the sum and product of linear vertexβarboricities of a graph and its complement. Specifically, we prove that for any graph G of order p.
magnified image and for any graph G of order p = (2__n__ + 1)^2^, where n β Z^+^, 2__n__ + 2 β¦ Ο(G) + Ο(G).
