Two sufficient conditions for a graphic sequence to have a realization with prescribed clique size

A graphic sequence π = ( d 1 , d 2 , … , d n ) is said to be potentially K r + 1 -graphic, if π has a realization G containing K r + 1 , a clique of r + 1 vertices, as a subgraph. In this paper, we give two simple sufficient conditions for a graphic sequence π = ( d 1 , d 2 , … , d n ) to be potenti...

Zusammenfassung:A graphic sequence π = ( d 1 , d 2 , … , d n ) is said to be potentially K r + 1 -graphic, if π has a realization G containing K r + 1 , a clique of r + 1 vertices, as a subgraph. In this paper, we give two simple sufficient conditions for a graphic sequence π = ( d 1 , d 2 , … , d n ) to be potentially K r + 1 -graphic. We also show that the two sufficient conditions imply a theorem due to Rao [An Erdös-Gallai type result on the clique number of a realization of a degree sequence unpublished.], a theorem due to Li et al [The Erdös–Jacobson–Lehel conjecture on potentially P k -graphic sequences is true, Sci. China Ser. A 41 (1998) 510–520.], the Erdös–Jacobson–Lehel conjecture on σ ( K r + 1 , n ) which was confirmed (see [Potentially G -graphical degree sequences, in: Y. Alavi et al. (Eds.), Combinatorics, Graph Theory, and Algorithms, vol. 1, New Issues Press, Kalamazoo Michigan, 1999, pp. 451–460; The smallest degree sum that yields potentially P k -graphic sequences, J. Graph Theory 29 (1998) 63–72; An extremal problem on the potentially P k -graphic sequence, Discrete Math. 212 (2000) 223–231; The Erdös–Jacobson–Lehel conjecture on potentially P k -graphic sequences is true, Sci. China Ser. A 41 (1998) 510–520.]) and the Yin–Li–Mao conjecture on σ ( K r + 1 - e , n ) [An extremal problem on the potentially K r + 1 - e -graphic sequences, Ars Combin. 74 (2005) 151–159.], where K r + 1 - e is a graph obtained by deleting one edge from K r + 1 .
