On generalised Petersen graphs of girth 7 that have cop number 4

We show that if $n=7k/i$ with $i \in \{1,2,3\}$ then the cop number of the generalised Petersen graph $GP(n,k)$ is $4$, with some small previously-known exceptions. It was previously proved by Ball et al. (2015) that the cop number of any generalised Petersen graph is at most $4$. The results in this paper explain all of the known generalised Petersen graphs that actually have cop number $4$ but were not previously explained by Morris et al. in a recent preprint, and places them in the context of infinite families. (More precisely, the preprint by Morris et al. explains all known generalised Petersen graphs with cop number $4$ and girth $8$, while this paper explains those that have girth $7$.)
