Abstract:

In assessing the “vulnerability” of a graph one determines the extent to which the graph retains certain properties after the removal of a number of vertices and/or edges. Four measures of vulnerability to vertex removal are compared for classes of graphs with edge densities ranging from that of trees to that of the complete graph.

Abstract:

Lander conjectured: If D is a \((\text{v,k},\lambda)\) difference set in an abelian group \(G\) with a cyclic Sylow \(p\)-subgroup, then \(p\) does not divide \((v,n)\), where \(\text{n = k}-\lambda\).

Various nonexistence theorems are used to verify the above conjecture (all hand calculations) for \(\text{k} \leq 500\), except for \(\text{k} = 228, 282\) and \(444\), when \(\lambda = 3\). Using a machine, it is possible to do the checking for large \(k\).
