Let S_m denote the m-vertex simple digraph formed by m-1 edges with a common tail. Let f(m) denote the minimum n such that every n-vertex tournament has a spanning subgraph consisting of n/m disjoint copies of S_m. We prove that m lg m - m lg lg m

A polynomial-time approximation algorithm for the number of k-matchings in bipartite graphs [PDF]
We show that the number of $k$-matching in a given undirected graph $G$ is equal to the number of perfect matching of the corresponding graph $G_k$ on an even number of vertices divided by a suitable factor.

Gregarious Kite Factorization of Tensor Product of Complete Graphs
A kite factorization of a multipartite graph is said to be gregarious if every kite in the factorization has all its vertices in different partite sets. In this paper, we show that there exists a gregarious kite factorization of Km × Kn if and only if mn

The Cartesian product of graphs with loops [PDF]
We extend the definition of the Cartesian product to graphs with loops and show that the Sabidussi-Vizing unique factorization theorem for connected finite simple graphs still holds in this context for all connected finite graphs with at least one ...

Arbitrarily Partitionable {2K2, C4}-Free Graphs
A graph G = (V, E) of order n is said to be arbitrarily partitionable if for each sequence λ = (λ1, λ2, …, λp) of positive integers with λ1 +·…·+λp = n, there exists a partition (V1, V2, …, Vp) of the vertex set V such that Vi induces a connected ...

Strong Tutte Type Conditions and Factors of Graphs
Let odd(G) denote the number of odd components of a graph G and k ≥ 2 be an integer. We give sufficient conditions using odd(G − S) for a graph G to have an even factor.

The Spectrum Problem for the Connected Cubic Graphs of Order 10
We show that if G is a connected cubic graph of order 10, then there exists a G-decomposition of Kv if and only if v ≣ 1 or 10 (mod 15) except when v = 10 and G is one of 5 specific graphs.

On Edge H-Irregularity Strengths of Some Graphs
For a graph G an edge-covering of G is a family of subgraphs H1, H2, . . . , Ht such that each edge of E(G) belongs to at least one of the subgraphs Hi, i = 1, 2, . . . , t. In this case we say that G admits an (H1, H2, . . . , Ht)-(edge) covering.

The Minimum Size of a Graph with Given Tree Connectivity
For a graph G = (V, E) and a set S ⊆ V of at least two vertices, an S-tree is a such subgraph T of G that is a tree with S ⊆ V (T). Two S-trees T1 and T2 are said to be internally disjoint if E(T1) ∩ E(T2) = ∅ and V (T1) ∩ V (T2) = S, and edge-disjoint ...

Sharp Upper Bounds on the Clar Number of Fullerene Graphs
The Clar number of a fullerene graph with n vertices is bounded above by ⌊n/6⌋ − 2 and this bound has been improved to ⌊n/6⌋ − 3 when n is congruent to 2 modulo 6.
