title: A characterization of extremal graphs with no matching-cut
keywords: matching-cut, matching immune, extremal graphs
abstract: A graph is called (matching-)immune if it has no edge cut that is also a matching. Farley and Proskurowski proved that for all immune graphs
G=(V,E)
,
|E|≥⌈3(|V|-1)/2⌉
, and constructed a large class of immune graphs that attain this lower bound for every value of
|V(G)|
, called ABC graphs. They conjectured that every immune graph that attains this lower bound is an ABC graph. We present a proof of this conjecture.

The first source gives you the `gzipped' PostScript, the second the plain PostScript and the third the format for the Adobe accrobat reader. Depending on the installation of your web browser, at least one of these should (after some amount of time) pop up a window for you that shows the full article. If this is not the case, you should contact your system administrator to install your browser correctly.

Due to limitations of your local software, the two formats may show up differently on your screen. If eg you use xpdf to visualize pdf, some of the graphics in the file may not come across. On the other hand, pdf has a capacity of giving links to sections, bibliography and external references that will not appear with PostScript.
