including simple k-trees, k-paths, maximal outerplanar graphs, and Apollonian networks …

A lower bound on the average size of a connected vertex set of a graph

A Vince - Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 2022 - Elsevier
The topic is the average order of a connected induced subgraph of a graph. This
generalizes, to graphs in general, the average order of a subtree of a tree. In 1983, Jamison …

[HTML][HTML] The path minimises the average size of a connected induced subgraph

J Haslegrave - Discrete Mathematics, 2022 - Elsevier
We prove that among connected graphs of order n, the path uniquely minimises the average
order of its connected induced subgraphs. This confirms a conjecture of Kroeker, Mol and …

The average order of a connected induced subgraph of a graph and union‐intersection systems

A Vince - Journal of Graph Theory, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Because connectivity is such a basic concept in graph theory, extremal problems concerning
the average order of the connected induced subgraphs of a graph have been of notable …

On the Local and Global Mean Orders of Sub--Trees of -Trees

Z Luo, K Xu - The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2023 - combinatorics.org
In this paper we show that for a given $ k $-tree $ T $ with a $ k $-clique $ C $, the local
mean order of all sub-$ k $-trees of $ T $ containing $ C $ is not less than the global mean …

The average size of a connected vertex set of a k-connected graph

A Vince - Discrete Mathematics, 2021 - Elsevier
The topic is the average order A (G) of a connected induced subgraph of a graph G. This
generalizes, to graphs in general, the average order of a subtree of a tree. In 1983 Jamison …

A tight upper bound on the average order of dominating sets of a graph

I Beaton, B Cameron - Journal of Graph Theory, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
In this paper we study the average order of dominating sets in a graph, avd (G) \,avd\,(G).
Like other average graph parameters, the extremal graphs are of interest. Beaton and Brown …
