New bounds on domination and independence in graphs
@article{Harant2020NewBO, title={New bounds on domination and independence in graphs}, author={J. Harant and S. Mohr}, journal={arXiv: Combinatorics}, year={2020} }
We propose new bounds on the domination number and on the independence number of a graph and show that our bounds compare favorably to recent ones. Our bounds are obtained by using the Bhatia-Davis inequality linking the variance, the expected value, the minimum, and the maximum of a random variable with bounded distribution.
