Erd\H{o}s-Gy\'{a}rf\'{a}s Conjecture for $P_8$-free graphs by Gao, Yuping; Shan, Songling is a scholarly article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Erd\H{o}s-Gy\'{a}rf\'{a}s Conjecture for $P_8$-free graphs about?

A graph is $P_8$-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to the path $P_8$ on eight vertices. In 1995, Erd\H{o}s and Gy\'{a}rf\'{a}s conjectured that every graph of minimum degree at least three contains a cycle whose length is a power of two. In this paper, we confirm the conjecture for $P_8$-free graphs by showing that there exists a cycle of length four or eight in every $P_8$-free graph with minimum degree at least three.
