Title
The Erdős-Lovász Tihany conjecture for quasi-line graphs
Abstract
Erdos and Lovasz conjectured in 1968 that for every graph G with @g(G)@w(G) and any two integers s,t=2 with s+t=@g(G)+1, there is a partition (S,T) of the vertex set V(G) such that @g(G[S])=s and @g(G[T])=t. Except for a few cases, this conjecture is still unsolved. In this note we prove the conjecture for quasi-line graphs and for graphs with independence number 2.
