Bollobás–Erdős–Tuza conjecture on transversals of maximum independent sets
Let be a constant. For a graph , let be the size of a largest independent set, and let be the size of a smallest set meeting every maximum independent set. Bollobás–Erdős–Tuza maximum conjecture. If is a graph on vertices with
