Getting inspired by the famous no-three-in-line problem and by the general position subset selection problem from discrete geometry, the same is introduced into graph theory as follows. A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a general position set if no element of $S$ lies on a geodesic between any two other elements of $S$. The cardinality of a largest general position set is the general position number ${rm gp}(G)$ of $G.$ In cite{ullas-2016} graphs $G$ of order $n$ with ${rm gp}(G)$ $in {2, n, n-1}$ were characterized. In this paper, we characterize the classes of all connected graphs of order $ngeq 4$ with the general position number $n-2.$
A vertex subset $S$ of a graph $G$ is a general position set of $G$ if no vertex of $S$ lies on a geodesic between two other vertices of $S$. The cardinality of a largest general position set of $G$ is the general position number ${rm gp}(G)$ of $G$.
We show that every n-vertex cubic graph with girth at least g have domination number at most 0.299871n+O(n/g)<3n/10+O(n/g).
Let Q(n,c) denote the minimum clique size an n-vertex graph can have if its chromatic number is c. Using Ramsey graphs we give an exact, albeit implicit, formula for the case c is at least (n+3)/2.
The Hadwiger number $h(G)$ is the order of the largest complete minor in $G$. Does sufficient Hadwiger number imply a minor with additional properties? In [2], Geelen et al showed $h(G)geq (1+o(1))ctsqrt{ln t}$ implies $G$ has a bipartite subgraph
Let $f$ be an optimal proper coloring of a graph $G$ and let $c$ be a coloring of the vertices of $G$ obtained by permuting the colors on vertices in the proper coloring $f$. The villainy of $c$, written $B(c)$, is the minimum number of vertices that
