We consider the following generalization of split graphs: A graph is said to be a (k; ')-graph if its vertex set can be partitioned into k independent sets and ' cliques. (Split graphs are obtained by setting k = ' = 1.) Much of the appeal of split graphs is due to the fact that they are chordal, a

This paper introduces two kinds of graph polynomials, clique polynomial and independent set polynomial. The paper focuses on expansions of these polynomials. Some open problems are mentioned.
It is shown in this note that it can be recognized in polynomial time whether the vertex set of a finite undirected graph can be partitioned into one or two independent sets and one or two cliques. Such graphs generalize bipartite and split graphs and the result also shows that it can be recognized
For integers m, n β₯ 2, let f (m, n) be the minimum order of a graph where every vertex belongs to both a clique of cardinality m and an independent set of cardinality n. We show that f (m, n) = ( β m -1 + β n -1) 2 .
