We give an exponential upper bound in p 4 on the size of any obstruction for path-width at most p. We give a doubly exponential upper bound in k 5 on the size of any obstruction for tree-width at most k. We also give an upper bound on the size of any intertwine of two given trees T and T $. The boun

It is shown how upper and lower bounds to the effectiveness factor may be obtained by variational methods. The formulae are developed to be capable of handling mass transferresistance at the surface of the catalyst particle, a diffusion coefficient which depends upon position in the particle, and a
Using a direct counting argument, we derive lower and upper bounds for the number of nodes enumerated by linear programming-based branch-and-bound (B&B) method to prove the integer infeasibility of a knapsack. We prove by example that the size of the B&B tree could be exponential in the worst case.
## Abstract Let __K__~1,__n__~ denote the star on __n__β+β1 vertices; that is, __K__~1,__n__~ is the complete bipartite graph having one vertex in the first vertex class of its bipartition and __n__ in the second. The special graph __K__~1,3~, called the __claw__, has received much attention in the
## Abstract We consider graphs __G = (V,E)__ with order Ο = |__V__|, size __e__ = |__E__|, and stability number Ξ²~0~. We collect or determine upper and lower bounds on each of these parameters expressed as functions of the two others. We prove that all these bounds are sharp. Β© __1993 by John Wiley
