Abstract

Let F={F1,F2,}{\cal{F}}=\{F_1,F_2,\ldots\} be a sequence of graphs such that FnF_n is a graph on nn vertices with maximum degree at most Δ\Delta. We show that there exists an absolute constant CC such that the vertices of any 2-edge-colored complete graph can be partitioned into at most 2CΔlogΔ2^{C\Delta \log{\Delta}} vertex disjoint monochromatic copies of graphs from F{\cal{F}}. If each FnF_n is bipartite, then we can improve this bound to 2CΔ2^{C \Delta}; this result is optimal up to the constant CC.
