Some remarks on the geodetic number of a graph
A set of vertices D of a graph G is geodetic if every vertex of G lies on a shortest path between two not necessarily distinct vertices in D. The geodetic number of G is the minimu...

The independence number in graphs of maximum degree three
We prove that a K4-free graph G of order n, size m and maximum degree at most three has an independent set of cardinality at least 1 7 (4n - m - - tr) where counts the number of c...

Edge Search Number of Cographs in Linear Time
We give a linear-time algorithm for computing the edge search number of cographs, thereby proving that this problem can be solved in polynomial time on this graph class. With our ...

New bounds on the edge number of a k-map graph
It is known that for every integer k ≥ 4, each k-map graph with n vertices has at most kn − 2k edges. Previously, it was open whether this bound is tight or not. We show that ...

Crossing and Weighted Crossing Number of Near-Planar Graphs
A nonplanar graph G is near-planar if it contains an edge e such that G − e is planar. The problem of determining the crossing number of a near-planar graph is exhibited from di...
