On the number of independent sets in trees of fixed diameter
Abstract:
We obtain lower bounds for the number of independent sets in trees of diameter 6, 7, 8, and 9. We also provide some restrictions on the structure of extremal trees of fixed diameter in the general case.
Tabl. 2, bibl. 3.
Keywords: tree, diameter, independent set, lower bounds.
