The independence number in graphs of maximum degree three
We prove that a K4-free graph G of order n, size m and maximum degree at most three has an independent set of cardinality at least 1 7 (4n - m - - tr) where counts the number of c...

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...

On graphs with subgraphs having large independence numbers
: Let G be a graph on n vertices in which every induced subgraph on s = log3 n vertices has an independent set of size at least t = log n. What is the largest q = q(n) so that ever...

Finding Independent Sets in Unions of Perfect Graphs
ABSTRACT. The maximum independent set problem (MAXIS) on general graphs is known to be NPhard to approximate within a factor of n1-, for any > 0. However, there are many "...
