Perfect Matchings with Crossings. [PDF]

open access: yesAlgorithmica, 2022
Abstract For sets of n points, n even, in general position in the plane, we consider straight-line drawings of perfect matchings on them. It is well known that such sets admit at least

Solving perfect matchings by frequency-grouped multi-photon events using a silicon chip [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Computing the number of perfect matchings of a graph is a famous #P-complete problem. In this work, taking the advantages of the frequency dimension of photon, we propose and implement a photonic perfect matching solver, by combining two key techniques ...

On the number of perfect matchings in random polygonal chains

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2023
Let GG be a graph. A perfect matching of GG is a regular spanning subgraph of degree one. Enumeration of perfect matchings of a (molecule) graph is interest in chemistry, physics, and mathematics.

Tight upper bound on the maximum anti-forcing numbers of graphs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
Let $G$ be a simple graph with a perfect matching. Deng and Zhang showed that the maximum anti-forcing number of $G$ is no more than the cyclomatic number.

Rainbow Perfect and Near-Perfect Matchings in Complete Graphs with Edges Colored by Circular Distance

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs, 2022
Given an edge-colored complete graph Kn on n vertices, a perfect (respectively, near-perfect) matching M in Kn with an even (respectively, odd) number of vertices is rainbow if all edges have distinct colors.

Families with no perfect matchings [PDF]

open access: yesCombinatorial Theory, 2021
We consider families of $k$-subsets of $\{1, \dots, n\}$, where $n$ is a multiple of $k$, which have no perfect matching. An equivalent condition for a family $\mathcal{F}$ to have no perfect matching is for there to be a blocking set, which is a set of $b$ elements of $\{1, \dots, n\}$ that cannot be covered by $b$ disjoint sets in $\mathcal{F}$.

Perfect Matching Preservers [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2006
For two bipartite graphs $G$ and $G'$, a bijection $\psi: E(G) \rightarrow E(G')$ is called a (perfect) matching preserver provided that $M$ is a perfect matching in $G$ if and only if $\psi(M)$ is a perfect matching in $G'$. We characterize bipartite graphs $G$ and $G'$ which are related by a matching preserver and the matching preservers between them.

On perfect matchings in matching covered graphs [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, 2018
AbstractA graph is matching‐covered if every edge of is contained in a perfect matching. A matching‐covered graph is strongly coverable if, for any edge of , the subgraph is still matching‐covered. An edge subset of a matching‐covered graph is feasible if there exist two perfect matchings and such that , and an edge subset with at least two ...

On two consequences of Berge–Fulkerson conjecture

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2020
The classical Berge–Fulkerson conjecture states that any bridgeless cubic graph admits a list of six perfect matchings such that each edge of belongs to two of the perfect matchings from the list.
