Number of perfect matchings in bipartite graph with given minimum degree
Let $G$ be a spanning subgraph of $K_{n,n}$ with minimum degree $\delta(G) \geq n/2$. It's easy to show using Hall's theorem that $G$ has a perfect matching, and the example of two disjoint copies of ...

Matching with probabilistic edges
Let $p<1$ be a constant. Consider two sets $A,B$, each with $n$ vertices. For each pair $(a,b)\in A\times B$, the edge between $a$ and $b$ appears with probability $p$, independently of the ...

Graph to Bipartite conversion preserving number of perfect matchings
Given a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices is there a technique to convert to a balanced bipartite graph $B$ with $O(n^c)$ vertices at some fixed $0<c$ in $O(n^{c'})$ time at some fixed $0<c'$ such that ...
