    Detecting wheels

    Full text link
    A \emph{wheel} is a graph made of a cycle of length at least~4 together with a vertex that has at least three neighbors in the cycle. We prove that the problem whose instance is a graph GG and whose question is "does GG contains a wheel as an induced subgraph" is NP-complete. We also settle the complexity of several similar problems
