โฆ Synopsis
In this paper we study the ultimate independence ratio I(G) of a graph G, which is defined as the limit of the sequence of independence ratios of powers of G. We construct a graph G with ultimate independence ratio I(G) strictly between the previous known upper bound 1/zz(G) and lower bound 1/x(G). We give a better lower bound for I(G) by using the concept of starchromatic number of a graph.

## 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
A new lower bound on the independence number of a graph is established and an accompanying efficient algorithm constructing an independent vertex set the cardinality of which is at least this lower bound is given. (~
Bounds are obtained on the limiting size of the nominal level- \(\alpha\) likelihood ratio test of independence in a \(r \times c\) contingency table. The situations considered include sampling with both marginal totals random and with one margin fixed. Upper and lower bounds are obtained. The limit
Caro (1979) and Wei (1981) established a bound on the size of an independent set of a graph as a function of its degrees. In case the degrees of each vertex's neighbors are also known, we establish a lower bound which is tighter for most graphs.
