A perfect matching is a matching of all the vertices of a graph. In other words, a perfect matching is a set of edges such that each vertex of the graph is incident to exactly one edge in the set.

Number of distinct perfect matchings/near perfect matchings in an induced subgraph

Consider a Class 1 graph with degree $\Delta\ge3$ and the induced subgraph formed by deleting a set of independent vertices of cardinality $\left\lfloor\frac{n}{\Delta}\right\rfloor$. Then, what is th …

Combining three matchings to form a maximal matching

Consider a regular tripartite graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta\ge3$ and parts $A,B,C$. Now, the induced subgraphs $A\cup B, B\cup C$ and $A\cup C$ are all bipartite. Now, is there a way to choos …

Bound on the number of maximum matchings in a graph

It is known that the number of perfect matchings in a graph is bounded above by the integer part of the square root of the permanent of its adjacency matrix. But, suppose I take the square root of the …

Do all induced subgraphs of powers of cycles have a perfect matching

Do all independence induced subgraphs of powers of cycles have a distinct 1-factor? By independence induced, I mean those induced subgraphs which are formed by removing a maximal independent set of ve …

Combining three matchings to form a maximal matching

Such a matching cannot be said to exist if the maximum degree of the bipartite graphs $A\cup B$, $B\cup C$ and $C\cup A$ are the same as that of the whole graph. This is because, if the individual bip …

A vertex transitive graph has a near perfect/ matching missing an independent set of vertices

Consider a power of cycle graph $C_n^k\,\,,\frac{n}{2}>k\ge2$, represented as a Cayley graph with generating set $\{1,2,\ldots, k,n-k,\ldots,n-1\}$ on the Group $\mathbb{Z}_n$. Supposing I remove an i …

A vertex transitive graph has a near perfect/ matching missing an independent set of vertices

Yes, it is possible to find a perfect/near perfect matching in the case of powers of cycles when one non-singleton set of maximal independent vertices of the given form is removed. This is because, th …
