Clusters in a multigraph with elevated density
The electronic journal of combinatorics, Tome 14 (2007)
In this paper, we prove that in a multigraph whose density $\Gamma$ exceeds the maxiimum vertex degree $\Delta$, the collection of minimal clusters (maximally dense sets of vertices) is cycle-free. We also prove that for multigraphs with $\Gamma\gt\Delta+1$, the size of any cluster is bounded from the above by $(\Gamma-3)/(\Gamma-\Delta-1)$. Finally, we show that two well-known lower bounds for the chromatic index of a multigraph are equal.
