Abstract

We consider graphs G = (V,E) with order ρ = |V|, size e = |E|, and stability number β~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. © 1993 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The interval number of a graph G, denoted by i(G), is the least natural number t such that G is the intersection graph of sets, each of which is the union of at most t intervals. Here we settle a conjecture of Griggs and West about bounding i(G) in terms of e, that is, the number of edges in G. Name

## Abstract Given a graph __G__ and an integer __k__ β‰₯ 1, let Ξ±(__G, k__) denote the number of __k__‐independent partitions of __G__. Let 𝒦^βˆ’s^(__p,q__) (resp., 𝒦~2~^βˆ’s^(__p,q__)) denote the family of connected (resp., 2‐connected) graphs which are obtained from the complete bipartite graph __K~p,q

## Abstract A new lower bound on the number of non‐isomorphic Hadamard symmetric designs of even order is proved. The new bound improves the bound on the number of Hadamard designs of order 2__n__ given in [12] by a factor of 8__n__β€‰βˆ’β€‰1 for every odd __n__ > 1, and for every even __n__ such that 4_

## Abstract In this article we first give an upper bound for the chromatic number of a graph in terms of its degrees. This bound generalizes and modifies the bound given in 11. Next, we obtain an upper bound of the order of magnitude ${\cal O}({n}^{{1}-\epsilon})$ for the coloring number of a graph
