The complete short proof of the Berge conjecture

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Combinatorics, 2022
We say that a graph B is berge if every graph B' ∈ {B,B̄} does not contain an induced cycle of odd length ≥ 5 [B̄ is the complementary graph of B}.A graph G is perfect if every induced subgraph G' of G satisfies χ(G')=ω(G'), where χ(G') is the chromatic ...

An application of the Lovasz-Schrijver M(K,K) operator to the stable set problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Although the lift-and-project operators of Lovász and Schrijver have been the subject of intense study, their M(K, K) operator has received little attention. We consider an application of this operator to the stable set problem.

Clique-width for hereditary graph classes

open access: yes, 2019
Clique-width is a well-studied graph parameter owing to its use in understanding algorithmic tractability: if the clique-width of a graph class G is bounded by a constant, a wide range of problems that are NP-complete in general can be shown to be ...
