Rigidity of complements of bounded-degree graphs

Maxwell observed that the graph of any rigid generic framework in $\mathbb{R}^d$ on $n$ vertices has at least $dn-\binom{d+1}{2}$ edges. In this article we prove that graphs whose complement has maximum degree at most two and no component isomorphic to a triangle or a square are rigid in the maximum dimension allowed b...
