Abstract

In this paper we decompose odd-hole-free graphs (graphs that do not contain as an induced subgraph a chordless cycle of odd length greater than three) with double star cutsets and 2-joins into bipartite graphs, line graphs of bipartite graphs and the complements of line graphs of bipartite graphs.
