A note on pm-compact bipartite graphs

Jinfeng Liu, Xiumei Wang (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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

A note on the hardness results for the labeled perfect matching problems in bipartite graphs

Jérôme Monnot (2008)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

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...

Choice-Perfect Graphs

Zsolt Tuza (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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...

Mycielskians and matchings

Tomislav Doslić (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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.

Existence of perfect matchings in a plane bipartite graph

Zhongyuan Che (2010)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of perfect matchings in a plane bipartite graph in terms of elementary edge-cut, which extends the result for the existence of perfect matchings in a hexagonal system given in the paper of F. Zhang, R. Chen and X. Guo (1985).

A Maximum Resonant Set of Polyomino Graphs

Heping Zhang, Xiangqian Zhou (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A polyomino graph P is a connected finite subgraph of the infinite plane grid such that each finite face is surrounded by a regular square of side length one and each edge belongs to at least one square. A dimer covering of P corresponds to a perfect matching. Different dimer coverings can interact via an alternating cycle (or square) with respect to them. A set of disjoint squares of P is a resonant set if P has a perfect matching M so that each one of those squares is M-alternating....
