Cliques in Graphs Excluding a Complete Graph Minor
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper considers the following question: What is the maximum number of k-cliques in an n-vertex graph with no Kt-minor? This question generalises the extremal function for Kt-minors, which corresponds to the k = 2 case. The exact answer is given for t 6 9 and all values of k. We also determine the maximum total number of cliques in an n-vertex graph with no Kt-minor for t 6 9. Several observations are made about the case of general t.

This paper is about: (1) bounds on the number of cliques in a graph in a particular class, and (2) algorithms for listing all cliques in a graph. We present a simple algorithm that lists all cliques in an n-vertex graph in O(n) time per clique. For O(1)-degenerate graphs, such as graphs excluding a fixed minor, we describe a O(n) time algorithm for listing all cliques. We prove that graphs excl...

متن کاملCohen-Macaulay $r$-partite graphs with minimal clique cover
In this paper, we give some necessary conditions for an $r$-partite graph such that the edge ring of the graph is Cohen-Macaulay. It is proved that if there exists a cover of an $r$-partite Cohen-Macaulay graph by disjoint cliques of size $r$, then such a cover is unique.
متن کاملEigenvalues of some signed graphs with negative cliques
In a signed graph G, a negative clique is a complete subgraph having negative edges only. In this article, we give characteristic polynomial expressions, and eigenvalues of some signed graphs having negative cliques. This includes signed cycle graph, signed path graph, a complete graph with disjoint negative cliques, and star block graph with negative cliques.
متن کاملOn the number of cliques in graphs with a forbidden minor
Reed and Wood and independently Norine, Seymour, Thomas, and Wollan proved that for each positive integer t there is a constant c(t) such that every graph on n vertices with no Kt-minor has at most c(t)n cliques. Wood asked in 2007 if we can take c(t) = c for some absolute constant c. This question was recently answered affirmatively by Lee and Oum. In this paper, we determine the exponential c...
