A new lower bound on the independence number of a graph
For a given connected graph G on n vertices and m edges, we prove that its independence number α(G) is at least ((2m+n+2) -((2m+n+2)2 -16n2 )½ )/8. Keywords : independence numbe...

Laplacian spectral bounds for clique and independence numbers of graphs
Let G be a simple graph with n vertices and m edges. Let ω(G) and α(G) be the numbers of vertices of the largest clique and the largest independent set in G, respectively. In th...

Polynomial Vicinity Circuits and Nonlinear Lower Bounds
We study families of Boolean circuits with the property that the number of gates at distance t fanning into or out of any given gate in a circuit is bounded above by a polynomial ...

New Lower Bounds For Orthogonal Drawings
An orthogonal drawing of a graph is an embedding of the graph in the two-dimensional grid such that edges are routed along grid-lines. In this paper we explore lower bounds for or...

Interpolating between bounds on the independence number
For a non-negative integer T, we prove that the independence number of a graph G = (V, E) in which every vertex belongs to at most T triangles is at least uV f(d(u), T) where d(u)...
