Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V(G)$. A set $S\subseteq V(G)$ is independent if no two vertices from $S$ are adjacent. For $X\subseteq V(G)$, the difference of $X$ is $d(X) = |X|-|N(X)|$ and an independent set $A$ is critical if…

Let G be a simple graph with vertex set V(G). A subset S of V(G) is independent if no two vertices from S are adjacent. By Ind(G) we mean the family of all independent sets of G while core(G) and corona(G) denote the intersection and the…

Let G=(V,E). A set S is independent if no two vertices from S are adjacent. The number d(X)= |X|-|N(X)| is the difference of X, and an independent set A is critical if d(A) = max{d(I):I is an independent set}. Let us recall that ker(G) is…

Let $\alpha(G)$ denote the cardinality of a maximum independent set, while $\mu(G)$ be the size of a maximum matching in $G=\left( V,E\right) $. Let $\xi(G)$ denote the size of the intersection of all maximum independent sets. It is known…

A set $S\subseteq V$ is \textit{independent} in a graph $G=\left( V,E\right) $ if no two vertices from $S$ are adjacent. The \textit{independence number} $\alpha(G)$ is the cardinality of a maximum independent set, while $\mu(G)$ is the…

Let G=(V,E) be a graph. A set S is independent if no two vertices from S are adjacent, alpha(G) is the size of a maximum independent set, and core(G) is the intersection of all maximum independent sets. The number d(X)=|X|-|N(X)| is the…

The independence number $\alpha(G)$ is the cardinality of a maximum independent set, while $\mu(G)$ is the size of a maximum matching in $G$. If $\alpha(G)+\mu(G)$ equals the order of $G$, then $G$ is called a Konig-Egervary graph. The…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V\left( G\right) $. A set $S\subseteq V\left( G\right) $ is independent if no two vertices from $S$ are adjacent, and by $\mathrm{Ind}(G)$ we mean the family of all independent sets of $G$. The…

A set S is independent in a graph G if no two vertices from S are adjacent. The independence number alpha(G) is the cardinality of a maximum independent set, while mu(G) is the size of a maximum matching in G. If alpha(G)+mu(G)=|V|, then…

Let $\alpha(G)$ denote the cardinality of a maximum independent set, while $\mu(G)$ be the size of a maximum matching in $G=\left( V,E\right) $. It is known that if $\alpha(G)+\mu(G)=\left\vert V\right\vert $, then $G$ is a…

Let alpha(G) be the cardinality of a independence set of maximum size in the graph G, while mu(G) is the size of a maximum matching. G is a Konig--Egervary graph if its order equals alpha(G) + mu(G). The set core(G) is the intersection of…

Let G be a simple graph with vertex set V(G). A set S is independent if no two vertices from S are adjacent. The graph G is known to be a Konig-Egervary if alpha(G)+mu(G)= |V(G)|, where alpha(G) denotes the size of a maximum independent set…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph. An independent set $I$ of $G$ is critical if $\left|I\right|-\left|N(I)\right|\ge\left|J\right|-\left|N(J)\right|$ for every independent set $J$ of $G$. A critical independent set is maximum if it has…

Given a graph $G$, the number of its vertices is represented by $n(G)$, while the number of its edges is denoted as $m(G)$. An independent set in a graph is a set of vertices where no two vertices are adjacent to each other and the size of…

Let $\alpha(G)$ denote the cardinality of a maximum independent set. An independent set $I$ of $G$ is critical if $\left|I\right|-\left|N(I)\right|\ge\left|J\right|-\left|N(J)\right|$ for every independent set $J$ of $G$. Let…

Let ${\rm ind}(G)$ be the number of independent sets in a graph $G$. We show that if $G$ has maximum degree at most $5$ then $$ {\rm ind}(G) \leq 2^{{\rm iso}(G)} \prod_{uv \in E(G)} {\rm ind}(K_{d(u),d(v)})^{\frac{1}{d(u)d(v)}} $$ (where…

A K\H{o}nig--Egerv\'ary graph is a graph $G$ satisfying $\alpha(G)+\mu(G)=n(G)$, where $\alpha(G)$, $\mu(G)$, and $n(G)$ denote the independence number, the matching number, and the order of $G$, respectively. Let $\textnormal{core}(G)$ and…

For a graph G and integer r \geq 1 we denote the family of independent r-sets of V(G) by I^{(r)}(G). A graph G is said to be r-EKR if no intersecting subfamily of I^{(r)}(G) is larger than the largest such family all of whose members…

Settling Kahn's conjecture (2001), we prove the following upper bound on the number $i(G)$ of independent sets in a graph $G$ without isolated vertices: \[ i(G) \le \prod_{uv \in E(G)} i(K_{d_u,d_v})^{1/(d_u d_v)}, \] where $d_u$ is the…
