Finding a shortest odd hole

2020 
An odd hole in a graph is a induced cycle with odd length greater than 3. In an earlier paper (with Sophie Spirkl), solving a longstanding open problem, we gave a polynomial-time algorithm to test if a graph has an odd hole. We subsequently showed that, for every t, there is a polynomial time algorithm to test whether a graph contains an odd hole of length at least t. In this paper, we give an algorithm that finds a shortest odd hole, if one exists.
