Finding the chromatic number by means of critical graphs
We propose a new exact algorithm for finding the chromatic number of a graph G. The algorithm attempts to determine the smallest possible induced subgraph G' of G which has t...

Estimating the number of graphs containing very long induced paths
Let P(n, k) denote the number of graphs on n + k vertices that contain Pn, a path on n vertices, as an induced subgraph. In this note we will find upper and lower bounds for P(n, ...

Subgraph Isomorphism in Planar Graphs and Related Problems
We solve the subgraph isomorphism problem in planar graphs in linear time, for any pattern of constant size. Our results are based on a technique of partitioning the planar graph ...

A new characterization of P6-free graphs
We study P6-free graphs, i.e., graphs that do not contain an induced path on six vertices. Our main result is a new characterization of this graph class: a graph G is P6-free if an...

Component structure induced by a random walk on a random graph
We consider random walks on two classes of random graphs and explore the likely structure of the vacant set viz. the set of unvisited vertices. Let (t) be the subgraph induced by ...
