Abstract
There are two particular -graphs - the 6-cycle graphs with a diagonal. We find the planar Turán number of each of them, i.e. the maximum number of edges in a planar graph G of n vertices not containing the given as a subgraph, and we find extremal constructions showing the sharpness of these results - apart from a small additive constant error in one of the cases.
期刊介绍:
Discrete Mathematics provides a common forum for significant research in many areas of discrete mathematics and combinatorics. Among the fields covered by Discrete Mathematics are graph and hypergraph theory, enumeration, coding theory, block designs, the combinatorics of partially ordered sets, extremal set theory, matroid theory, algebraic combinatorics, discrete geometry, matrices, and discrete probability theory.
Items in the journal include research articles (Contributions or Notes, depending on length) and survey/expository articles (Perspectives). Efforts are made to process the submission of Notes (short articles) quickly. The Perspectives section features expository articles accessible to a broad audience that cast new light or present unifying points of view on well-known or insufficiently-known topics.
