A subset of vertices is a maximum independent set if no two of the vertices are joined by an edge and the subset has maximum cardinality. In this paper we answer a question posed by Herb Wilf. We show that the greatest number of maximum independent sets for a tree of n vertices is 2(n-3\* for odd n
A perfect matching or a l-factor of a graph G is a spanning subgraph that is regular of degree one. Hence a perfect matching is a set of independent edges which matches all the nodes of G in pairs. Thus in a hypercube parallel processor, the number of perfect matchings evaluates the number of diff
