A stable set in a graph G is a set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices. The independence polynomial of G is I(G;x) = s0+s1x+s2x 2 +...+sαx α , where α = α(G) is the cardinality of a maximum stable of G, while sk equals the number of stable sets of size k in G (Gutman and Harary, 1983). Hamidoune, 1990, showed that for every claw-free graph G (i.e., a graph having no induced subgraph isomorphic to...
