Counting maximal distance-independent sets in grid graphs
Previous work on counting maximal independent sets for paths and certain 2-dimensional grids is extended in two directions: 3-dimensional grid graphs are included and, for some/any l ∈ N, maximal distance-l independent (or simply: maximal l-independent) sets are counted for some grids. The transfer matrix method has been adapted and successfully applied.
متن کاملCounting independent sets in graphs
In this short survey article, we present an elementary, yet quite powerful, method of enumerating independent sets in graphs. This method was first employed more than three decades ago by Kleitman and Winston and has subsequently been used numerous times by many researchers in various contexts. Our presentation of the method is illustrated with several applications of it to ‘real-life’ combinat...
متن کاملOn Counting Independent Sets in Sparse Graphs
We prove two results concerning approximate counting of independent sets in graphs with constant maximum degree ∆. The first implies that the Markov chain Monte Carlo technique is likely to fail if ∆ ≥ 6. The second shows that no fully polynomial randomized approximation scheme can exist for ∆ ≥ 25, unless RP = NP.
متن کاملCounting Independent Sets in Claw-Free Graphs
Although many of the counting problems (e.g. counting independent sets or matchings in a graph) are known to be #P-Complete (see Vadhan [3]), a remarkable progress has been done in designing exponential time algorithms solving them. Dahllöf, Jonsson, Wahlström [2] constructed algorithms that count maximum weight models of 2-SAT formulas in time O∗(1.2561n). This bound bound was later improved t...
متن کاملCounting independent sets in triangle-free graphs
Ajtai, Komlós, and Szemerédi proved that for sufficiently large t every trianglefree graph with n vertices and average degree t has an independent set of size at least n 100t log t. We extend this by proving that the number of independent sets in such a graph is at least 2 1 2400 n t log . This result is sharp for infinitely many t, n apart from the constant. An easy consequence of our result i...
