Problem GT-003 — the Erdős–Gyárfás conjecture

goaldef

Every graph with minimum degree at least three contains a cycle whose length is a power of two. Known for graphs with no K₄ minor, and for large girth; open in general.

def goal : Prop :=
  ∀ (V : Type) [Fintype V] (G : SimpleGraph V) [DecidableRel G.Adj],
    (∀ v : V, 3 ≤ G.degree v) → ∃ k : ℕ, HasCycleLength G (2 ^ k)
