A gra~h is wen-covered if it has no isolated vertices and all the maximal stable (iadependent) sets have the same cardinality. If fm'thermore this cardinality is equal to Β½n, where n is the order of, he graph, the graph is called 'veEΒ’ well covered'. The class of very well-covered graphs contains in

In his talk 'Spanning tees of planar maps' at the 19th Southeastern Conference on Combinatorics, Graph Theory and Computing (Baton Rouge, LA, February 1988), Rosenfeld stated the following conjecture. Conjecture. Let G be a 2-connected graph and let % be a collection of cycles in G such that: (i)
## Abstract A graph with __n__ vertices is well covered if every maximal independent set is a maximum independent set and very well covered if every maximal independent set has size __n__/2. In this work, we study these graphs from an algorithmic complexity point of view. We show that wellβcovered
A graph is well-covered if every maximal independent set is maximum. This concept, introduced by Plummer in 1970 (J. Combin. Theory 8 (1970)), is the focal point of much interest and current research. We consider well-covered 2-degenerate graphs and supply a structural (and polynomial time algorithm
