A graph G is said to satisfy the Vizing bound if chi(G) <= omega(G) + 1, where chi(G) and omega(G) denote the chromatic number and clique number of G, respectively. The class of graphs satisfying the Vizing bound is clearly chi-bounded in the sense of Gyarfas. It has been conjectured that if G is triangle-free and fork-free, where the fork is obtained from K-1,K-4 by subdividing two edges, then G satisfies the Vizing bound. We show that this is true if, in addition, G is C-5-free. |
