Abstract

Graph G is H-saturated if H is not a subgraph of G and H is a subgraph of G+e for any edge e not in G. The saturation number for a graph H is the minimal number of edges in any H-saturated graph of order n. In this paper, the saturation number for Kp∪(t−1)Kq (t⩾3 and 2⩽p<q) is determined, and the extremal graph for Kp∪2Kq is determined. Moreover, the saturation number and the extremal graph for Kp∪Kq∪Kr (r⩾p+q) are completely determined.
