Resumo

Let lct(G) be the minimum size of a set of vertices that intersects every longest cycle of a 2-connected graph G. Let tw(G) be the tree-width of G and omega (G) be the size of a maximum clique in G. We show that lct(G) <= tw(G)-1 for every G, and that lct(G) <= max{1, omega(G)-3} if G is chordal. Those results imply as corollaries that all longest cycles intersect in 2-connected series-parallel graphs and in 3-trees. We also strengthen the latter result and show that all longest cycles intersect in 2-connected graphs of tree-width at most 3, also known as partial 3-trees. (AU)
