  A note on disjoint cycles
Kotrbík M.  Information Processing Letters 112(4): 135-137, 2012. Type: Article

Certain measures of graphs, such as the edge coloring number, are hard to compute precisely. Some others, such as the maximum number of vertex-disjoint cycles, are even hard to approximate. It is known, for example, that computing...
