摘要
An upper bound on the saturation number for graphs as well as associated extremal graphs was given by (Kaszonyi and Tuza in J. Graph Theory, 10:203-210, 1986). A minor improvement of that result, which was implied in their paper, will be stated. Using this result, a series of exact saturation numbers and associated extremal graphs will be proved for the nearly complete graphs K (t) - E(L), where L is a graph of order at most 4.
