A subset of vertices is a {it maximum independent set} if no two of the vertices are adjacent and the subset has maximum cardinality. A subset of vertices is called a {it maximum dissociation set} if it induces a subgraph with vertex degree at most 1, and the subset has maximum cardinality. Zito [J. Graph Theory {bf 15} (1991) 207--221] proved that the maximum number of maximum independent sets of a tree of order $n$ is $2^{frac{n-3}{2}}$ if $n$ is odd, and $2^{frac{n-2}{2}}+1$ if $n$ is even and also characterized all extremal trees with the most maximum independent sets, which solved a question posed by Wilf. Inspired by the results of Zito, in this paper, by establishing four structure theorems and a result of $k$-K{o}nig-Egerv{a}ry graph, we show that the maximum number of maximum dissociation sets in a tree of order $n$ is begin{center} $left{ begin{array}{ll} 3^{frac{n}{3}-1}+frac{n}{3}+1, & hbox{if $nequiv0pmod{3}$;} 3^{frac{n-1}{3}-1}+1, & hbox{if $nequiv1pmod{3}$;} 3^{frac{n-2}{3}-1}, & hbox{if $nequiv2pmod{3}$,} end{array} right.$ end{center} and also give complete structural descriptions of all extremal trees on which these maxima are achieved.

A subtree of a tree is any induced subgraph that is again a tree (i.e., connected). The mean subtree order of a tree is the average number of vertices of its subtrees. This invariant was first analyzed in the 1980s by Jamison. An intriguing open ques
tion raised by Jamison asks whether the maximum of the mean subtree order, given the order of the tree, is always attained by some caterpillar. While we do not completely resolve this conjecture, we find some evidence in its favor by proving different features of trees that attain the maximum. For example, we show that the diameter of a tree of order $n$ with maximum mean subtree order must be very close to $n$. Moreover, we show that the maximum mean subtree order is equal to $n - 2log_2 n + O(1)$. For the local mean subtree order, which is the average order of all subtrees containing a fixed vertex, we can be even more precise: we show that its maximum is always attained by a broom and that it is equal to $n - log_2 n + O(1)$.
Given a graph $G$, let $f_{G}(n,m)$ be the minimal number $k$ such that every $k$ independent $n$-sets in $G$ have a rainbow $m$-set. Let $mathcal{D}(2)$ be the family of all graphs with maximum degree at most two. Aharoni et al. (2019) conjectured t
hat (i) $f_G(n,n-1)=n-1$ for all graphs $Ginmathcal{D}(2)$ and (ii) $f_{C_t}(n,n)=n$ for $tge 2n+1$. Lv and Lu (2020) showed that the conjecture (ii) holds when $t=2n+1$. In this article, we show that the conjecture (ii) holds for $tgefrac{1}{3}n^2+frac{44}{9}n$. Let $C_t$ be a cycle of length $t$ with vertices being arranged in a clockwise order. An ordered set $I=(a_1,a_2,ldots,a_n)$ on $C_t$ is called a $2$-jump independent $n$-set of $C_t$ if $a_{i+1}-a_i=2pmod{t}$ for any $1le ile n-1$. We also show that a collection of 2-jump independent $n$-sets $mathcal{F}$ of $C_t$ with $|mathcal{F}|=n$ admits a rainbow independent $n$-set, i.e. (ii) holds if we restrict $mathcal{F}$ on the family of 2-jump independent $n$-sets. Moreover, we prove that if the conjecture (ii) holds, then (i) holds for all graphs $Ginmathcal{D}(2)$ with $c_e(G)le 4$, where $c_e(G)$ is the number of components of $G$ isomorphic to cycles of even lengths.
Let $T$ be a rooted tree, and $V(T)$ its set of vertices. A subset $X$ of $V(T)$ is called an infima closed set of $T$ if for any two vertices $u,vin X$, the first common ancestor of $u$ and $v$ is also in $X$. This paper determines the trees with mi
nimum number of infima closed sets among all rooted trees of given order, thereby answering a question of Klazar. It is shown that these trees are essentially complete binary trees, with the exception of vertices at the last levels. Moreover, an asymptotic estimate for the minimum number of infima closed sets in a tree with $n$ vertices is also provided.
We prove that there is $c>0$ such that for all sufficiently large $n$, if $T_1,dots,T_n$ are any trees such that $T_i$ has $i$ vertices and maximum degree at most $cn/log n$, then ${T_1,dots,T_n}$ packs into $K_n$. Our main result actually allows to
replace the host graph $K_n$ by an arbitrary quasirandom graph, and to generalize from trees to graphs of bounded degeneracy that are rich in bare paths, contain some odd degree vertices, and only satisfy much less stringent restrictions on their number of vertices.
Finding the maximum number of induced cycles of length $k$ in a graph on $n$ vertices has been one of the most intriguing open problems of Extremal Graph Theory. Recently Balogh, Hu, Lidick{y} and Pfender answered the question in the case $k=5$. In t
his paper we determine precisely, for all sufficiently large $n$, the maximum number of induced $5$-cycles that an $n$-vertex planar graph can contain.
