Necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the existence of a graph whose upper and lower domination, independence and irredundance numbers are six given positive integers. This result shows that the only relationships between these six parameters which hold for all graphs and which do
## 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
proved that if G is a 2-connected graph with n vertices such that d(u)+d(v)+d(w) n+} holds for any triple of independent vertices u, v, and w, then G is hamiltonian, where } is the vertex connectivity of G. In this note, we will give a short proof of the above result.
The transmission of a graph or digraph G is the sum of all distances in G. StFict bounds on the transmission are collected and extended for several classes of graphs and digraphs. For example, in the class of 2connected or Z-edge-mnnected graphs of order n, the maximal transmission is realized only
