چکیده

Planar Maximally Filtered Graphs (PMFG) are an important tool for filtering the most relevant information from correlation based networks such as stockmarket networks. One of themain characteristics of a PMFG is the number of its 3and 4-cliques. Recently in a few high impact papers it was stated that, based on heuristic evidence, the maximum number of 3and 4-cliques that can exist in a PMFGwith n vertices is 3n−8 and n−4 respectively. In this paper, we prove that this is indeed the case. © 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

On the Maximum Number of Cliques in a Graph

A clique is a set of pairwise adjacent vertices in a graph. We determine the maximum number of cliques in a graph for various graph classes. For example, the maximum number of cliques in a planar graph with n vertices is 8(n − 2).

Outerplanar and planar oriented cliques

The clique number of an undirected graphG is the maximum order of a complete subgraph of G and is a well-known lower bound for the chromatic number ofG. Every proper k-coloring of G may be viewed as a homomorphism (an edge-preserving vertex mapping) of G to the complete graph of order k. By considering homomorphisms of oriented graphs (digraphs without cycles of length at most 2), we get a natu...

On the edge-connectivity of C_4-free graphs

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $delta(G)$.The edge-connectivity $lambda(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum numberof edges whose removal renders $G$ disconnected. It is well-known that$lambda(G) leq delta(G)$,and if $lambda(G)=delta(G)$, then$G$ is said to be maximally edge-connected. A classical resultby Chartrand gives the sufficient condition $delta(G) geq frac{n-1}{2}$fo...

NP-hardness of the recognition of coordinated graphs

A graph G is coordinated if the minimum number of colors that can be assigned to the cliques of H in such a way that no two cliques with non-empty intersection receive the same color is equal to the maximum number of cliques of H with a common vertex, for every induced subgraph H of G. Coordinated graphs are a subclass of perfect graphs. In a previous work, polynomial time algorithms were found...

On the M-polynomial of planar chemical graphs

Let $G$ be a graph and let $m_{i,j}(G)$, $i,jge 1$, be the number of edges $uv$ of $G$ such that ${d_v(G), d_u(G)} = {i,j}$. The $M$-polynomial of $G$ is $M(G;x,y) = sum_{ile j} m_{i,j}(G)x^iy^j$. With $M(G;x,y)$ in hands, numerous degree-based topological indices of $G$ can be routinely computed. In this note a formula for the $M$-polynomial of planar (chemical) graphs which have only vertices...
