Some news about the independence number of a graph

چکیده
For a finite undirected graph G on n vertices some continuous optimization problems taken over the n-dimensional cube are presented and it is proved that their optimum values equal the independence number of G.

SOME GRAPH PARAMETERS ON THE COMPOSITE ORDER CAYLEY GRAPH
In this paper, the composite order Cayley graph Cay(G, S) is introduced, where G is a group and S is the set of all composite order elements of G. Some graph parameters such as diameter, girth, clique number, independence number, vertex chromatic number and domination number are calculated for the composite order Cayley graph of some certain groups. Moreover, the planarity of composite order Ca...
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 $R$.

Conceptually graph vulnerability relates to the study of graphintactness when some of its elements are removed. The motivation forstudying vulnerability measures is derived from design and analysisof networks under hostile environment. Graph tenacity has been anactive area of research since the the concept was introduced in1992. The tenacity T(G) of a graph G is defined asbegin{center} $T(G)=di...
متن کاملComputing Multiplicative Zagreb Indices with Respect to Chromatic and Clique Numbers
The chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by χ(G), is the minimum number of colors such that G can be colored with these colors in such a way that no two adjacent vertices have the same color. A clique in a graph is a set of mutually adjacent vertices. The maximum size of a clique in a graph G is called the clique number of G. The Turán graph Tn(k) is a complete k-partite graph whose partition...
متن کاملGirth, minimum degree, independence, and broadcast independence
An independent broadcast on a connected graph $G$is a function $f:V(G)to mathbb{N}_0$such that, for every vertex $x$ of $G$, the value $f(x)$ is at most the eccentricity of $x$ in $G$,and $f(x)>0$ implies that $f(y)=0$ for every vertex $y$ of $G$ within distance at most $f(x)$ from $x$.The broadcast independence number $alpha_b(G)$ of $G$is the largest weight $sumlimits_{xin V(G)}f(x)$of an ind...
