It is an open problem to determine whether there is an $n$-vertex graph having twin-width at least $n/2$ (due to J. Ahn, K. Hendrey, D. Kim and S. Oum). In an earlier paper, the author showed that such a graph with less than equal to 5 vertices does not exist. In this article, we show that such a graph with 6 vertices does not exist. More precisely, we prove that each graph with 6 vertices has twin-width less than equal to 2.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-09-11T08:29:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C30", "05C38", "05C76", "68R10" ], "keywords": [ "ahn-hendrey-kim-oum question", "twin-width", "graph parameter", "finite graphs", "vertex graph" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
