The P 4 is the induced path with vertices a, b, c, d and edges ab, bc, cd. The chair (co-P, gem) has a fifth vertex adjacent to b (a and b, a, b, c and d, respectively). We give a complete structure description of prime chair-, co-P-and gem-free graphs which implies bounded clique width for this gra

We give a O(nm) time algorithm for the maximum weight stable set (MWS) problem on P5-and co-chair-free graphs without recognizing whether the (arbitrary) input graph is P5and co-chair-free. This algorithm is based on the fact that prime P5-and co-chair-free graphs containing 2K2 are matched co-bipar
## Abstract We describe a new class of graphs for which the stability number can be obtained in polynomial time. The algorithm is based on an iterative procedure that, at each step, builds from a graph __G__ a new graph __G^l^__ that has fewer nodes and has the property that Ξ±(__G^l^__) = Ξ±(__G__)
## Abstract A spanning subgraph whose vertices have degrees belonging to the interval [__a,b__], where __a__ and __b__ are positive integers, such that __a__ β€ __b__, is called an [__a,b__]βfactor. In this paper, we prove sufficient conditions for existence of an [__a,b__]βfactor, a connected [__a,
Let G be a graph with vertex set V (G). In this work we present a sufficient condition for the existence of connected [k, k + 1]factors in graphs. The condition involves the stability number and degree conditions of graph G.
