Perfect Matchings and Cluster Algebras of Classical Type [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2008
In this paper we give a graph theoretic combinatorial interpretation for the cluster variables that arise in most cluster algebras of finite type. In particular, we provide a family of graphs such that a weighted enumeration of their perfect matchings ...

Even cycles and perfect matchings in claw-free plane graphs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020
Lov{\'a}sz showed that a matching covered graph $G$ has an ear decomposition starting with an arbitrary edge of $G$. Let $G$ be a graph which has a perfect matching.

Fractional matching preclusion for butterfly derived networks

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs, 2019
The matching preclusion number of a graph is the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph that has neither perfect matchings nor almost perfect matchings.

Revisiting a Cutting-Plane Method for Perfect Matchings

open access: yesOpen Journal of Mathematical Optimization, 2020
In 2016, Chandrasekaran, Végh, and Vempala (Mathematics of Operations Research, 41(1):23–48) published a method to solve the minimum-cost perfect matching problem on an arbitrary graph by solving a strictly polynomial number of linear programs.

Packing Plane Perfect Matchings into a Point Set [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2015
Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, where $n$ is even, we consider the following question: How many plane perfect matchings can be packed into $P$? For points in general position we prove the lower bound of ⌊log2$n$⌋$-1$.

Annihilating random walks and perfect matchings of planar graphs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2003
We study annihilating random walks on $\mathbb{Z}$ using techniques of P.W. Kasteleyn and $R$. Kenyonon perfect matchings of planar graphs. We obtain the asymptotic of the density of remaining particles and the partition function of the underlying ...

Shortest Reconfiguration of Perfect Matchings via Alternating Cycles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Motivated by adjacency in perfect matching polytopes, we study the shortest reconfiguration problem of perfect matchings via alternating cycles. Namely, we want to find a shortest sequence of perfect matchings which transforms one given perfect matching ...

A note on extreme sets

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications, 2017
In decomposition theory, extreme sets have been studied extensively due to its connection to perfect matchings in a graph. In this paper, we first define extreme sets with respect to degree-matchings and next investigate some of their properties.

Near―perfect non-crossing harmonic matchings in randomly labeled points on a circle [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2005
Consider a set $S$ of points in the plane in convex position, where each point has an integer label from $\{0,1,\ldots,n-1\}$. This naturally induces a labeling of the edges: each edge $(i,j)$ is assigned label $i+j$, modulo $n$.

Generalized Matching Preclusion in Bipartite Graphs

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs, 2018
The matching preclusion number of a graph with an even number of vertices is the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph that has no perfect matchings. For many interconnection networks, the optimal such sets are precisely sets of edges
