The cost of perfection for matchings in graphs

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2016
Perfect matchings and maximum weight matchings are two fundamental combinatorial structures. We consider the ratio between the maximum weight of a perfect matching and the maximum weight of a general matching. Motivated by the computer graphics application in triangle meshes, where we seek to convert a triangulation into a quadrangulation by merging ...

Coronoid systems with perfect matchings

open access: yes, 1996
A hexagonal system is a finite 2-connected plane graph in which every interior face is bounded by a regular hexagon. A coronoid system is obtained from a hexagonal system by deleting some interior vertices and/or interior edges such that a unique ...

Core Index of Perfect Matching Polytope for a 2-Connected Cubic Graph

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2018
For a 2-connected cubic graph G, the perfect matching polytope P(G) of G contains a special point xc=(13,13,…,13)$x^c = \left( {{1 \over 3},{1 \over 3}, \ldots ,{1 \over 3}} \right)$ . The core index ϕ(P(G)) of the polytope P(G) is the minimum number of

The hyper-Zagreb index of cacti with perfect matchings

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2020
Let be a simple connected graph. The hyper-Zagreb index is defined as . A connected graph is a cacti if all blocks of are either edges or cycles. Let be the set of cacti of order with a perfect matching and cycles. In this paper, we determine sharp upper

Trees maximizing the number of almost-perfect matchings

open access: yes, 2022
We characterize the extremal trees that maximize the number of almost-perfect matchings, which are matchings covering all but one or two vertices, and those that maximize the number of strong almost-perfect matchings, which are matchings missing only one

All Pairs of Pentagons in Leapfrog Fullerenes Are Nice

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
A subgraph H of a graph G with perfect matching is nice if G−V(H) has perfect matching. It is well-known that all fullerene graphs have perfect matchings and that all fullerene graphs contain some small connected graphs as nice subgraphs.

Perfect matchings in planar cubic graphs

open access: yes, 2012
A well-known conjecture of Lovasz and Plummer from the mid-1970’s, still open, asserts that for every cubic graph G with no cutedge, the number of perfect matchings in G is exponential in |V (G)|.

Perfect Matchings in Claw-free Cubic Graphs

open access: yes, 2009
Lovasz and Plummer conjectured that there exists a fixed positive constant c such that every cubic n-vertex graph with no cutedge has at least 2^(cn) perfect matchings.
