Berge's Conjecture for Cubic Graphs with Small Colouring Defect
Original language description
A long standing conjecture of Berge suggests that every bridgeless cubic graph can be expressed as a union of at most five perfect matchings.This conjecture holds for 3-edge-colourable cubic graphs, but remains widely open for graphs that are not 3-edge-coroulable.The aim of this paper is to investigate the validity of Berge conjecture for cubic graphs with small colouring defect. We prove that cubic graphswith colouring defect 3 satisfy the Berge congecture. Moreover, we prove that if the cyclic connectivity is at least four, then four perfect matchings suffice unless the graph is the Petersen graph.
