Given a graph G = (V,E) and a set Lv of admissible colors for each vertex v ∈ V (termed the list at v), a list coloring of G is a (proper) vertex coloring ϕ : V → S v2V Lv such that ϕ(v) ∈ Lv for all v ∈ V and ϕ(u) 6= ϕ(v) for all uv ∈ E. If such a ϕ exists, G is said to be list colorable. The choice number of G is the smallest natural number k for which G is list colorable whenever each list contains at least k colors. In this note we initiate the study of graphs in which the choice...

A graph is called perfect matching compact (briefly, PM-compact), if its perfect matching graph is complete. Matching-covered PM-compact bipartite graphs have been characterized. In this paper, we show that any PM-compact bipartite graph G with δ (G) ≥ 2 has an ear decomposition such that each graph in the decomposition sequence is also PM-compact, which implies that G is matching-covered

It is shown in this note that some matching-related properties of graphs, such as their factor-criticality, regularizability and the existence of perfect 2-matchings, are preserved when iterating Mycielski's construction.

In this note, we strengthen the inapproximation bound of (log) for the labeled perfect matching problem established in J. Monnot, The Labeled perfect matching in bipartite graphs, (2005) 81–88, using a self improving operation in some hard instances. It is interesting to note that this self improving operation does not work for all instances. Moreover, based on this approach we deduce that the problem does not admit constant approximation algorithms for connected planar...

We solve Open Problem (xvi) from Perfect Problems of Chvátal [1] available at ftp://dimacs.rutgers.edu/pub/perfect/problems.tex: Is there a class C of perfect graphs such that (a) C does not include all perfect graphs and (b) every perfect graph contains a vertex whose neighbors induce a subgraph that belongs to C? A class P is called locally reducible if there exists a proper subclass C of P such that every graph in P contains a local subgraph...

We consider (ψk−γk−1)-perfect graphs, i.e., graphs G for which ψk(H) = γk−1(H) for any induced subgraph H of G, where ψk and γk−1 are the k-path vertex cover number and the distance (k − 1)-domination number, respectively. We study (ψk−γk−1)-perfect paths, cycles and complete graphs for k ≥ 2. Moreover, we provide a complete characterisation of (ψ2 − γ1)- perfect graphs describing the set of its forbidden induced subgraphs and providing the explicit characterisation of the structure...

In this paper, we propose a generalization of well known kinds of perfectness of graphs in terms of distances between vertices. We introduce generalizations of α-perfect, χ-perfect, strongly perfect graphs and we establish the relations between them. Moreover, we give sufficient conditions for graphs to be perfect in generalized sense. Other generalizations of perfectness are given in papers [3] and [7].

Perfect graphs constitute a well-studied graph class with a rich structure, reflected by many characterizations with respect to different concepts. Perfect graphs are, for instance, precisely those graphs where the stable set polytope coincides with the fractional stable set polytope . For all imperfect graphs it holds that . It is, therefore, natural to use the difference between the two polytopes in order to decide how far an imperfect graph is away from being perfect. We discuss...
