For large $n$ we determine exactly the maximum numbers of induced $C_4$ and $C_5$ subgraphs that a planar graph on $n$ vertices can contain. We show that $K_{2,n-2}$ uniquely achieves this maximum in the $C_4$ case, and we identify the…

An antimagic labelling of a graph $G = (V,E)$ is a bijection from $E$ to $\{1,2, \ldots, |E|\}$, such that all vertex-sums are pairwise distinct, where the vertex-sum of each vertex is the sum of labels over edges incident to this vertex. A…

Consider a graph $\Gamma$. A set $ S $ of vertices in $\Gamma$ is called a {cyclic vertex cutset} of $\Gamma$ if $\Gamma - S$ is disconnected and has at least two components containing cycles. If $\Gamma$ has a cyclic vertex cutset, then it…
