All minimum C5-saturated graphs

Abstract: Abstract:A graph is C 5 -saturated if it has no five-cycle as a subgraph, but does contain a C 5 after the addition of any new edge. We prove that the minimum number of edges in a C 5 -saturated graph on n ≥ 11 vertices is sat(n, C 5 ) = 10(n−1)/7 −1 if n ∈ N 0 = {11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18, 20} and is 10(n−1)/7 if n ≥ 11 and n ∈ N 0 .

“…Actually, (2) was conjectured by Fisher, Fraughnaugh, Langley [13]. Later Ya-Chen [8] determined sat(n, C 5 ) for all n, as well as all extremal graphs. The best previously known general lower bound came from Barefoot, Clark, Entringer, Porter, Székely, and Tuza [3], and the best general upper bound (a clever, complicated construction resembling a bicycle wheel) came from Gould, Łuczak, and Schmitt [15] 1…”

“…There are very few graphs for which sat(H, n) is known exactly. In addition to cliques, sat(H, n) is known for stars, paths and matchings [12], tK p , K p ∪ K q and generalized friendship graphs [8], books [3,16], C 4 [15], C 5 [4], and K 2,3 [17]. Some progress has been made for arbitrary cycles, and the current best known upper bound on sat(C t , n) can be found in [9].…”

“…(A shorter proof was found by Tuza [29].) Very recently, Chen [9,8] completely solved the case of C 5 . The value of sat(n, C m ) is unknown (even asymptotically) for any other fixed m; various bounds are proved in [1,17].…”
