摘要
Let G be a graph. We use chi(G) and omega(G) to denote the chromatic number and clique number of G respectively. A P5 is a path on 5 vertices, and an HVN is a K4 together with one more vertex which is adjacent to exactly two vertices of K4. Combining with some known result, in this paper we show that if G is (P5, HVN)-free, then chi(G) <= max{min{16, omega(G) + 3}, omega(G) + 1}. This upper bound is almost sharp.
