Independent Sets in n-vertex k-chromatic, \ell-connected graphs
John Engbers, Lauren Keough, Taylor Short
We study the problem of maximizing the number of independent sets in -vertex -chromatic -connected graphs. First we consider maximizing the total number of independent…

The saturation number of carbon nanocones and nanotubes
Taylor Short
The saturation number of a graph is the cardinality of a smallest maximal matching. This paper presents bounds for the saturation number of carbon nanocones which are asymptoticall…
