Rezumat

For a given integer k, a graph G of order n is called k-step Hamiltonian if there is a labeling v1, v2, ..., vn of vertices of G such that d(v1, vn) = d(vi, vi+1) = k for i = 1, 2, ..., n − 1. The independence number of a graph is the maximum cardinality of a subset of pair-wise non-adjacent vertices. In this paper we study the independence number in k-step Hamiltonian graphs. We present sharp upper bounds as well as sharp lower bounds, and then present a construction that produces infinite families of k-step Hamiltonian graphs with arbitrarily large independence number.
