Graphs with no induced C4 and 2K2

Blbzsik, Z., M. Hujter, A. Pluhir and Z. Tuza, Graphs with no induced C4 and 2K,, Discrete Mathematics 115 (1993) 51-55. We characterize the structure of graphs containing neither the 4-cycle nor its complement as an induced subgraph. This self-complementary class B of graphs includes split graphs, which are graphs whose vertex set is the union of a clique and an independent set. In the members...

Large regular graphs with no induced 2K2

Let r be a positive integer. Consider r-regular graphs in which no induced subgraph on four vertices is an independent pair of edges. The number v of vertices in such a graph does not exceed 5r/2; this proves a conjecture of Bermond. More generally, it is conjectured that if v > 2r, then the ratio v/r must be a rational number of the form 2 + 1/(2k). This is proved for v/r > 21 _ ~ . The extrem...

All Ramsey (2K2,C4)−Minimal Graphs

Let F, G and H be non-empty graphs. The notation F → (G,H) means that if any edge of F is colored by red or blue, then either the red subgraph of F con- tains a graph G or the blue subgraph of F contains a graph H. A graph F (without isolated vertices) is called a Ramsey (G,H)−minimal if F → (G,H) and for every e ∈ E(F), (F − e) 9 (G,H). The set of all Ramsey (G,H)−minimal graphs is denoted by ...

all ramsey (2k2,c4)−minimal graphs

let f, g and h be non-empty graphs. the notation f → (g,h) means that if any edge of f is colored by red or blue, then either the red subgraph of f con- tains a graph g or the blue subgraph of f contains a graph h. a graph f (without isolated vertices) is called a ramsey (g,h)−minimal if f → (g,h) and for every e ∈ e(f), (f − e) 9 (g,h). the set of all ramsey (g,h)−minimal graphs is denoted by ...
