演題: Extremal graphs with no disconnecting matching
概要:
 We discuss a class of "disconnecting matching immune" graphs, those that can lose connectivity by removing a matching (an independent set of edges, no two of which are sharing end-vertices). For the given number of vertices, n, the tight lower bound on the number of edges in an immune graph is [3(n-1)/2]. An old conjecture (Farley and Proskurowski, 1984) states that these extremal immune graphs are exactly the graphs obtained from the single vertex by a finite number of three simple augmentation operations. We prove the conjecture with the help of some novel techniques of Bonsma (2003).
