Independent sets in triangle-free cubic planar graphs
: We prove that every triangle-free planar graph on n vertices with maximum degree three has an independent set with size at least 3 8 n. This was suggested and later conjectured b...

Uncover Low Degree Vertices and Minimise the Mess: Independent Sets in Random Regular Graphs
Abstract. We present algorithmic lower bounds on the size of the largest independent sets of vertices in a random d-regular graph. Our bounds hold with probability approaching one ...

Seeking a Vertex of the Planar Matching Polytope in NC
For planar graphs, counting the number of perfect matchings (and hence determining whether there exists a perfect matching) can be done in NC [4, 10]. For planar bipartite graphs, ...

Independent dominating sets and hamiltonian cycles
A graph is uniquely hamiltonian if it contains exactly one hamiltonian cycle. In this note we prove that there are no r-regular uniquely hamiltonian graphs when r > 22. This im...

The monadic second-order logic of graphs XV: On a conjecture by D. Seese
A conjecture by D. Seese states that if a set of graphs has a decidable monadic second-order theory, then it is the image of a set of trees under a transformation defined by monad...
