3-正则图的不共边的完美匹配（英文）

研究3-正则图的一个有意义的问题是它是否存在k个没有共边的完美匹配.关于这个问题有一个著名的Fan-Raspaud猜想：每一个无割边的3-正则图都有3个没有共边的完美匹配.但这个猜想至今仍未解决.设dim（P（G））表示图G的完美匹配多面体的维数.本文证明了对于无割边的3-正则图G,如果dim（P（G））≤14,那么k≤4：如果dim（P（G））≤20,那么k≤5.     

Graphs of Triangulations and Perfect Matchings

Given a set P of points in general position in the plane, the graph of triangulations of P has a vertex for every triangulation of P, and two of them are adjacent if they differ by a single edge exchange. We prove that the subgraph of , consisting of all triangulations of P that admit a perfect matching, is connected. A main tool in our proof is a result of independent interest, namely that the graph that has as vertices the non-crossing perfect matchings of P and two of them are adjacent if their symmetric difference is a single non-crossing cycle, is also connected.     

Graphs of Non-Crossing Perfect Matchings

 Let P _n be a set of n=2m points that are the vertices of a convex polygon, and let ℳ _m be the graph having as vertices all the perfect matchings in the point set P _n whose edges are straight line segments and do not cross, and edges joining two perfect matchings M ₁ and M ₂ if M ₂=M ₁−(a,b)−(c,d)+(a,d)+(b,c) for some points a,b,c,d of P _n . We prove the following results about ℳ _m : its diameter is m−1; it is bipartite for every m; the connectivity is equal to m−1; it has no Hamilton path for m odd, m>3; and finally it has a Hamilton cycle for every m even, m≥4.

Perfect Matchings of Cellular Graphs

We introduce a family of graphs, called cellular, and consider the problem of enumerating their perfect matchings. We prove that the number of perfect matchings of a cellular graph equals a power of 2 times the number of perfect matchings of a certain subgraph, called the core of the graph. This yields, as a special case, a new proof of the fact that the Aztec diamond graph of order n introduced by Elkies, Kuperberg, Larsen and Propp has exactly 2 ^n(n+1)/2 perfect matchings. As further applications, we prove a recurrence for the number of perfect matchings of certain cellular graphs indexed by partitions, and we enumerate the perfect matchings of two other families of graphs called Aztec rectangles and Aztec triangles.     

Factor-Critical Graphs with Given Number of Maximum Matchings

A connected graph G is said to be factor-critical if G − ν has a perfect matching for every vertex ν of G. In this paper, the factor-critical graphs G with |V(G)| maximum matchings and with |V(G)| + 1 ones are characterized, respectively. From this, some special bicritical graphs are characterized.

Perfect Matchings of Regular Bipartite Graphs

Let G be a regular bipartite graph and . We show that there exist perfect matchings of G containing both, an odd and an even number of edges from X if and only if the signed graph , that is a graph G with exactly the edges from X being negative, is not equivalent to . In fact, we prove that for a given signed regular bipartite graph with minimum signature, it is possible to find perfect matchings that contain exactly no negative edges or an arbitrary one preselected negative edge. Moreover, if the underlying graph is cubic, there exists a perfect matching with exactly two preselected negative edges. As an application of our results we show that each signed regular bipartite graph that contains an unbalanced circuit has a 2‐cycle‐cover such that each cycle contains an odd number of negative edges.

Ordering Trees with Nearly Perfect Matchings by Algebraic Connectivity

Let T2k＋1 be the set of trees on 2k＋1 vertices with nearly perfect matchings and α（T） be the algebraic connectivity of a tree T. The authors determine the largest twelve values of the algebraic connectivity of the trees in T2k＋1. Specifically, 10 trees T2,T3,... ,T11 and two classes of trees T（1） and T（12） in T2k＋1 are introduced. It is shown in this paper that for each tree T^′1,T^″1∈T（1）and T^′12,T^″12∈T（12） and each i,j with 2≤i〈j≤11,α（T^′1）=α（T^″1）〉α（Tj）〉α（T^′12）=α（T^″12）.It is also shown that for each tree T with T∈T2k＋1／（T（1）∪{T2,T3,…,T11}∪T（12））,α（T^′12）〉α（T）.     

Upper Bounds for the Paired-Domination Numbers of Graphs

A set \(S\subseteq V\) is a paired-dominating set if every vertex in \(V{\setminus } S\) has at least one neighbor in S and the subgraph induced by S contains a perfect matching. The paired-domination number of a graph G, denoted by \(\gamma _{pr}(G)\), is the minimum cardinality of a paired-dominating set of G. A conjecture of Goddard and Henning says that if G is not the Petersen graph and is a connected graph of order n with minimum degree \(\delta (G)\ge 3\), then \(\gamma _{pr}(G)\le 4n/7\). In this paper, we confirm this conjecture for k-regular graphs with \(k\ge 4\).     

On the Perfect Matchings of Near Regular Graphs

Let k, h be positive integers with k ≤ h. A graph G is called a [k, h]-graph if k ≤ d(v) ≤ h for any v ? V(G){v \in V(G)}. Let G be a [k, h]-graph of order 2n such that k ≥ n. Hilton (J. Graph Theory 9:193–196, 1985) proved that G contains at least ?k/3?{\lfloor k/3\rfloor} disjoint perfect matchings if h = k. Hilton’s result had been improved by Zhang and Zhu (J. Combin. Theory, Series B, 56:74–89, 1992), they proved that G contains at least ?k/2?{\lfloor k/2\rfloor} disjoint perfect matchings if k = h. In this paper, we improve Hilton’s result from another direction, we prove that Hilton’s result is true for [k, k + 1]-graphs. Specifically, we prove that G contains at least ?\fracn3?+1+(k-n){\lfloor\frac{n}3\rfloor+1+(k-n)} disjoint perfect matchings if h = k + 1.

Maximizing the Minimum and Maximum Forcing Numbers of Perfect Matchings of Graphs

Let G be a simple graph with 2n vertices and a perfect matching.The forcing number f(G,M) of a perfect matching M of G is the smallest cardinality of a subset of M that is contained in no other perfect matching of G.Among all perfect matchings M of G,the minimum and maximum values of f(G,M) are called the minimum and maximum forcing numbers of G,denoted by f(G) and F(G),respectively.Then f(G)≤F(G) ≤n-1.Che and Chen(2011) proposed an open problem:how to characterize the graphs G with f(G)=n-1.Lat...     

A Characterization of b‐Perfect Graphs

A b‐coloring is a coloring of the vertices of a graph such that each color class contains a vertex that has a neighbor in all other color classes, and the b‐chromatic number of a graph G is the largest integer k such that G admits a b‐coloring with k colors. A graph is b‐perfect if the b‐chromatic number is equal to the chromatic number for every induced subgraph of G. We prove that a graph is b‐perfect if and only if it does not contain as an induced subgraph a member of a certain list of 22 graphs. This entails the existence of a polynomial‐time recognition algorithm and of a polynomial‐time algorithm for coloring exactly the vertices of every b‐perfect graph. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

On the Intersection Number of Matchings and Minimum Weight Perfect Matchings of Multicolored Point Sets

Let P and Q be disjoint point sets with 2r and 2s elements respectively, and M₁ and M₂ be their minimum weight perfect matchings (with respect to edge lengths). We prove that the edges of M₁ and M₂ intersect at most |M₁|+|M₂|−1 times. This bound is tight. We also prove that P and Q have perfect matchings (not necessarily of minimum weight) such that their edges intersect at most min{r,s} times. This bound is also sharp.

Bounds on the forcing numbers of bipartite graphs

The forcing number of a perfect matching M of a graph G is the cardinality of the smallest subset of M that is contained in no other perfect matching of G. In this paper, we demonstrate several techniques to produce upper bounds on the forcing number of bipartite graphs. We present a simple method of showing that the maximum forcing number on the 2m×2n rectangle is mn, and show that the maximum forcing number on the 2m×2n torus is also mn. Further, we investigate the lower bounds on the forcing number and determine the conditions under which a previously formulated lower bound is sharp; we provide an example of a family of graphs for which it is arbitrarily weak.     

非交换环的拟零因子图

In this paper, a new class of rings, called FIC rings, is introduced for studying quasi-zero-divisor graphs of rings. Let R be a ring. The quasi-zero-divisor graph of R, denoted by Γ_*(R), is a directed graph defined on its nonzero quasi-zero-divisors, where there is an arc from a vertex x to another vertex y if and only if x Ry = 0. We show that the following three conditions on an FIC ring R are equivalent:(1) χ(R) is finite;(2) ω(R) is finite;(3)Nil_*R is finite where Nil_*R equals the finite intersection of prime ideals. Furthermore, we also completely determine the connectedness, the diameter and the girth of Γ_*(R).
