摘要
We show that connected graphs admit sublinear longest path transversals. This improves an earlier result of Rautenbach and Sereni and is related to the fifty-year-old question of whether connected graphs admit longest path transversals of constant size. The same technique allows us to show that 2-connected graphs admit sublinear longest cycle transversals.
