On the chromatic number of (P_{5},windmill)-free graphs [PDF]
In this paper we study the chromatic number of \((P_5, windmill)\)-free graphs. For integers \(r,p\geq 2\) the windmill graph \(W_{r+1}^p=K_1 \vee pK_r\) is the graph obtained by joining a single vertex (the center) to the vertices of \(p\) disjoint ...

Complexity of Coloring Graphs without Paths and Cycles
Let $P_t$ and $C_\ell$ denote a path on $t$ vertices and a cycle on $\ell$ vertices, respectively. In this paper we study the $k$-coloring problem for $(P_t,C_\ell)$-free graphs.

On the graph condition regarding the $F$-inverse cover problem [PDF]
In their paper titled "On $F$-inverse covers of inverse monoids", Auinger and Szendrei have shown that every finite inverse monoid has an $F$-inverse cover if and only if each finite graph admits a locally finite group variety with a certain property. We

Heavy subgraph pairs for traceability of block-chains
A graph is called traceable if it contains a Hamilton path, i.e., a path containing all its vertices. Let G be a graph on n vertices. We say that an induced subgraph of G is o−1-heavy if it contains two nonadjacent vertices which satisfy an Ore-type ...

A Quasi-Hole Detection Algorithm for Recognizing k-Distance-Hereditary Graphs, with k < 2
Cicerone and Di Stefano defined and studied the class of k-distance-hereditary graphs, i.e., graphs where the distance in each connected induced subgraph is at most k times the distance in the whole graph. The defined graphs represent a generalization of

Minimal Obstructions for Partial Representations of Interval Graphs
Interval graphs are intersection graphs of closed intervals. A generalization of recognition called partial representation extension was introduced recently.

On Sequential Heuristic Methods for the Maximum Independent Set Problem
We consider sequential heuristics methods for the Maximum Independent Set (MIS) problem. Three classical algorithms, VO [11], MIN [12], or MAX [6] , are revisited. We combine Algorithm MIN with the α-redundant vertex technique[3].

On the 12-Representability of Induced Subgraphs of a Grid Graph
The notion of a 12-representable graph was introduced by Jones, Kitaev, Pyatkin and Remmel in [Representing graphs via pattern avoiding words, Electron. J. Combin. 22 (2015) #P2.53].

The Price of Connectivity for Vertex Cover
The vertex cover number of a graph is the minimum number of vertices that are needed to cover all edges. When those vertices are further required to induce a connected subgraph, the corresponding number is called the connected vertex cover number, and is
