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 "...

Fast Deterministic Distributed Maximal Independent Set Computation on Growth-Bounded Graphs
Abstract. The distributed complexity of computing a maximal independent set in a graph is of both practical and theoretical importance. While there exists an elegant O(log n) time ...

Maximal independent sets in graphs with at most r cycles
We find the maximum number of maximal independent sets in two families of graphs. The first family consists of all graphs with n vertices and at most r cycles. The second family i...
