SUMMARY:Kevin Hendrey\, A unified half-integral Erdős-Pósa theorem for cycles in graphs labelled by multiple abelian groups
DESCRIPTION:Erdős and Pósa proved in 1965 that there is a duality between the maximum size of a packing of cycles and the minimum size of a vertex set hitting all cycles. Such a duality does not hold if we restrict to odd cycles.  However\, in 1999\, Reed proved an analogue for odd cycles by relaxing packing to half-integral packing. We prove a far-reaching generalisation of the theorem of Reed; if the edges of a graph are labelled by finitely many abelian groups\, then there is a duality between the maximum size of a half-integral packing of cycles whose values avoid a fixed finite set for each abelian group and the minimum size of a vertex set hitting all such cycles. \nA multitude of natural properties of cycles can be encoded in this setting\, for example cycles of length at least $\ell$\, cycles of length $p$ modulo $q$\, cycles intersecting a prescribed set of vertices at least $t$ times\, and cycles contained in given $\mathbb{Z}_2$-homology classes in a graph embedded on a fixed surface. Our main result allows us to prove a duality theorem for cycles satisfying a fixed set of finitely many such properties. \nThis is joint work with J. Pascal Gollin\, Ken-ichi Kawarabayashi\, O-joung Kwon\, and Sang-il Oum.
