A subset S of V (G) is called a P -kernel of G if τ (G[S]) ≤ n − 1 n and every vertex v ∈ V (G) − S is adjacent to an end-vertex of a path of order n − 1 in G[S]. A partition of the vertex set of G into two sets, A and B, such that τ (G[A]) ≤ a and τ (G[B]) ≤ b is called an (a,b)-partition of G. In this paper we show that any graph with girth g has a Pn+1-kernel for every n 3g − 1. Furthermore, if τ (G) = a + b, 1 ≤ a ≤ b, G has girth 2 g 2 (a + 1), then G has an (a,b)-partition. 3 KEY WORDS: path kernel, path semikernel, (a,b)-partition, Path Par- tition Conjecture. ii G + H D = (V,A) τ (G) G ∪ NG (v) G v ∩
