Let i(t)(G) be the number of independent sets of size t in a graph G. Engbers and Galvin asked how large i(t)(G) could be in graphs with minimum degree at least delta. They further conjectured that when n >= 2 delta and t >= 3, i(t)(G) is maximized by the complete bipartite graph K-delta,K-n-delta. This conjecture has recently drawn the attention of many researchers. In this short note, we prove this conjecture. |
