1705 | A vertex set that hits all induced $P_3$'s hits, in particular, all induced $P_4$'s. |
1706 | Since each cluster graph is a cographs also each complement of a cluster graph is. Hence, a deletion set into a complement of a cluster graphs is a deletion set into a cograph. |
1707 | A cograph has diameter at most three. Hence, any graph with a deletion set into a cograph of size $a$ has diameter at most $a + 3$. |

Be $f(x) = x+1$ The degree $deg_G$ of all vertices $k$ in the maximum clique is $deg_G(k) = \alpha(G) -1$. Hence $deg_G(k)$ is the smallest possible maximum degree of graph $G$. Be $s$ the identifier for all vertices in $G$, which are not in the maximum clique. $deg_G(s) > deg_G(k) \Rightarrow \alpha(G) \leq \beta(G)$ and $deg_G(s)$ is the maximum degree. $deg_G(s) \leq deg_G(k) \Rightarrow deg_G(k)$ is the maximum degree. It follows by $f$: $\alpha(G) \leq \beta(G)+1 \Leftrightarrow \alpha(G) \leq f(\beta(G)) \Rightarrow \alpha \leq_{G} \beta$. |
1709 | The maximum independent set is always a dominating set. Because every edge $e$ of the graph $G$ has one ending in the maximum independent set, except of $e$ is part of a clique. If $\beta$ is also the minimum Dominating Set, $\beta = \alpha$. If there is a smaller Dominating Set than $\beta$, it implies $\alpha < \beta$.Both together implies $\alpha \leq \beta$. |
1710 | Clearly, any independent set can take at most one vertex out of each clique in a clique cover, establishing that maximum independent sets are at most as large as minimum size clique covers. To see that the gap between these two can be arbitrarily large, recall that that Mycielski's graphs show that the chromatic number of a graph can be arbitrarily large whereas the maximum clique size is a constant. Taking the complements of these graphs shows that the same is true for minimum clique covers and independent sets. |
1711 | Take a longest shortest path $P$. No two vertices $u, v$ on $P$ that are at least four steps apart can be dominated by the same vertex. Otherwise, we could replace these subpath of $P$ induced by $u, v$ by a shortcut over the vertex which dominates them, a contradiction to the fact that $P$ is a shortest path between its endpoints. Hence, any dominating set contains at least $|V(P)|/4$ vertices. |

Let $C$ be a graph class where the maximum independent set (MIS) is bounded by constant $k$. Weighted independent domination
can be solved in $O(n^k)$: There are $O(n^k)$ independent sets and they can be enumerated. Weighted independent dominating set must be IS by definition. So enumerate all IS, check if they are IDS and keep track of the weight. The complexity is $O(n^k)$. (Communicated by G. Guninski) |

1760 | triangle-free graphs have unbounded chromatic number. Take a triangle-free graph with arbitrary large chromatic number $k$, then subdivide every edge. The resulting graph is bipartite and has no induced C4 or C6 . The oriented chromatic number is $k$ and thus the acyclic chromatic number is $\Omega(ln(k))$. Hence bipartite graphs without induced C4 ,C6 have unbounded acyclic chromatic number. (Communicated by P. Ochem) |

In maximal planar graphs, maximum degree, minimum dominating set and diameter are unbounded. Proof: Maximum degree is unbounded: Every planar graph can be completed into a maximal planar graph by edge addition and maximum degree is unbounded on planar graphs. Proof: minimum dominating set and diameter are unbounded. Take a large triangular grid, complete it into a maximal planar graph. You get graphs with arbitrarily large diameter and thus arbitrarily large minimum dominating set. (Communicated by P. Dorbec) |
