By using the notion of compatibility of subgraphs with a perfect matching developed for digraphs in [1], we show that if, in a balanced bipartite graph G of minimum degree 6, the maximum cardinality ebip of a balanced independent subset satisfies ~bip ~< 26 --4, then G is hamiltonian-biconnected, an

A simple polynomial-time algorithm is presented which computes independent sets of guaranteed size in connected triangle-free noncubic graphs with maximum degree 3. Let nand m denote the number of vertices and edges, respectively, and let c '= m/n denote the edge density where c < 3/2. The algorithm
## Abstract This paper presents some recent results on lower bounds for independence ratios of graphs of positive genus and shows that in a limiting sense these graphs have the same independence ratios as do planar graphs. This last result is obtained by an application of Menger's Theorem to show t
Let G=(V 1 , V 2 ; E ) be a bipartite graph with |V 1 |= |V 2 | =n 2k, where k is a positive integer. Suppose that the minimum degree of G is at least k+1. We show that if n>2k, then G contains k vertex-disjoint cycles. We also show that if n=2k, then G contains k&1 quadrilaterals and a path of orde
