Abstract: | ![]() The graph G is a covering of the graph H if there exists a (projection) map p from the vertex set of G to the vertex set of H which induces a one-to-one correspondence between the vertices adjacent to v in G and the vertices adjacent to p(v) in H, for every vertex v of G. We show that for any two finite regular graphs G and H of the same degree, there exists a finite graph K that is simultaneously a covering both of G and H. The proof uses only Hall's theorem on 1-factors in regular bipartite graphs. |
