The number of independent sets in unicyclic graphs
In this paper, we determine upper and lower bounds for the number of independent sets in a unicyclic graph in terms of its order. This gives an upper bound for the number of independent sets in a connected graph which contains at least one cycle. We also determine the upper bound for the number of independent sets in a unicyclic graph in terms of order and girth. In each case we characterize th...
متن کاملon the number of maximum independent sets of graphs
let $g$ be a simple graph. an independent set is a set ofpairwise non-adjacent vertices. the number of vertices in a maximum independent set of $g$ isdenoted by $alpha(g)$. in this paper, we characterize graphs $g$ with $n$ vertices and with maximumnumber of maximum independent sets provided that $alpha(g)leq 2$ or $alpha(g)geq n-3$.
متن کاملINDEPENDENT SETS OF SOME GRAPHS ASSOCIATED TO COMMUTATIVE RINGS
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A set $Ssubseteq V$ isindependent set of $G$, if no two vertices of $S$ are adjacent.The independence number $alpha(G)$ is the size of a maximumindependent set in the graph. In this paper we study and characterize the independent sets ofthe zero-divisor graph $Gamma(R)$ and ideal-based zero-divisor graph $Gamma_I(R)$of a commutative ring $R$.
متن کاملIntegers for the Number of Maximal Independent Sets in Graphs
Let G be a simple undirected graph. Denote by mi(G) (respectively, xi(G)) the number of maximal (respectively, maximum) independent sets in G. In this paper we determine the third and fouth largest value of mi(G) among all graphs of order n. Moreover, the extremal graphs achieving these values are also determined.

متن کاملMaximising the number of independent sets in connected graphs
A Turán connected graph TCn,α is obtained from α cliques of size b αc or d αe by joining all cliques by an edge to one central vertex in one of the larger cliques. The graph TCn,α was shown recently by Bruyère and Mélot to maximise the number of independent sets among connected graphs of order n and independence number α. We prove a generalisation of this result by showing that TCn,α in fact ma...
