Claim. Every planar claw-free graph with minimum degree at least 33 contains a cycle whose length is a power of 22. The result is Dale Daniel and Stephen E. Shauger, A result on the Erdős--Gyárfás conjecture in planar graphs, Congr. Numer. 153 (2001), 129--139, whose summary says the proof depends on work of Dean and of Dean, Lesniak and Saito. The page name carries the publication year; the day is not recorded in any source read. The paper is not held by this corpus; the statement follows the zbMATH record (Zbl 0997.05053) and the thread comment of 6 December 2025 that the site's remark on Problem 64 points to for the families where the conjecture is confirmed.

Covers. The statement of Problem 64 for planar claw-free graphs.

Depends on. No page of this wiki.

Standing. Claimed: Congressus Numerantium is a proceedings series, and no evidence that the volume was refereed is recorded, so the publication is not listed as refereed evidence. The site's curator cites the family list that names the paper while labeling the problem FALSIFIABLE, which is commentary on an open problem and not acceptance.
