“…X. Yu [25] charaterized all obstructions to P 4 -linked graphs, and showed that 7 ≤ f (P 4 ) ≤ 8, and Ellingham, Plummer, and G. Yu [3] showed that f (P 4 ) = 7. Very recently, McCarty, Wang, and X. Yu [16] showed that f (C 4 ) = 7, that is, 7-connected graphs are 4-ordered, confirming a conjecture of Faudree [4]. Beyond this, very little is known about f (H) for other multigraphs H.…”
