Extended formulations for stable set polytopes of graphs without two disjoint odd cycles

Let G be an n-node graph without two disjoint odd cycles. The algorithm of Artmann, Weismantel and Zenklusen (STOC’17) for bimodular integer programs can be used to find a maximum weight stable set in G in strongly polynomial time. Building on structural results characterizing sufficiently connected graphs without two disjoint odd cycles, we construct a size-O(n2)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$O(n^2)$$\end{document} extended formulation for the stable set polytope of G.
