Given a graph F , a graph G is uniquely F -saturated if F is not a subgraph of G and adding any edge of the complement to G completes exactly one copy of F . In this paper we study uniquely Ct-saturated graphs. We prove the following: (1) a graph is uniquely C5-saturated if and only if it is a friendship graph. (2) There are no uniquely C6-saturated graphs or uniquely C7-saturated graphs. (3) F...

A graph G is uniquely Kr-saturated if it contains no clique with r vertices and if for all edges e in the complement, G + e has a unique clique with r vertices. Previously, few examples of uniquely Kr-saturated graphs were known, and little was known about their properties. We search for these graphs by adapting orbital branching, a technique originally developed for symmetric integer linear pr...
