Let P(n, k) denote the number of graphs on n + k vertices that contain Pn, a path on n vertices, as an induced subgraph. In this note we will find upper and lower bounds for P(n, ...
A graph is called biclaw-free if it has no biclaw as an induced subgraph. In this note, we prove that if G is a connected bipartite biclaw-free graph with (G) 5, then G is collap...
The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is still one of the most researched topics in computational mathematics, and we introduce a variant of it, namely the study of the closed k-wa...

This note presents two results on real zeros of chromatic polynomials. The first result states that if G is a graph containing a q-tree as a spanning subgraph, then the chromatic ...
A biclique is a complete bipartite subgraph of a graph. This paper investigates the fractional biclique cover number, bc(G), and the fractional biclique partition number, bp(G), o...
