Missing word?

More strongly, there exists a constant α < 1 (the shortness exponent) and an infinite family of polyhedral graphs such that the length of the longest simple path of an n-vertex graph in the family is O(n^α).

Isn't the word "cubic" missing in that sentence? --MathsPoetry (talk) 08:48, 14 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

I think you could define a shortness exponent for cubic polyhedral graphs, and for polyhedral graphs more generally, but it might not be the same exponent. —David Eppstein (talk) 15:28, 14 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Then the word is not missing.

As you have understood it, the previous order of sentences was misleading with respect to current hypotheses. Great that you have changed it. --MathsPoetry (talk) 20:50, 14 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

A page that knows where it met you.
