We show the existence of rainbow perfect matchings in $\mu n$-bounded edge colourings of Dirac bipartite graphs, for a sufficiently small $\mu>0$. As an application of our results, we obtain several results on the existence of rainbow…

We show that the ratio of the number of near perfect matchings to the number of perfect matchings in $d$-regular strong expander (non-bipartite) graphs, with $2n$ vertices, is a polynomial in $n$, thus the Jerrum and Sinclair Markov chain…

In this paper we study conditions which guarantee the existence of perfect matchings and perfect fractional matchings in uniform hypergraphs. We reduce this problem to an old conjecture by Erd\H{o}s on estimating the maximum number of edges…

We prove that there exist bipartite Ramanujan graphs of every degree and every number of vertices. The proof is based on analyzing the expected characteristic polynomial of a union of random perfect matchings, and involves three…

We prove that there exist perfect graphs of arbitrarily large clique-chromatic number. These graphs can be obtained from cobipartite graphs by repeatedly gluing along cliques. This negatively answers a question raised by Duffus, Sands,…

In this paper, we present several density-type theorems which show how to find a copy of a sparse bipartite graph in a graph of positive density. Our results imply several new bounds for classical problems in graph Ramsey theory and improve…

We define and study greedy matchings in vertex-ordered bipartite graphs. It is shown that each vertex-ordered bipartite graph has a unique greedy matching. The proof uses (a weak form of) Newman's lemma. The vertex ordering is called a…

Let $G$ be a bipartite graph and its adjacency matrix $\mathbb A$. If $G$ has a unique perfect matching, then $\mathbb A$ has an inverse $\mathbb A^{-1}$ which is a symmetric integral matrix, and hence the adjacency matrix of a multigraph.…

Working in any model theoretic structure, we single out a class of definable bipartite graphs that admit definable, close to perfect matchings. We use this result to prove a strengthening of Tarski's theorem for the definable setting.

In this paper, motivated by a question posed in \cite{AH}, we introduce strongly biconvex graphs as a subclass of weakly chordal and bipartite graphs. We give a linear time algorithm to find an induced matching for such graphs and we prove…

We consider a matching problem in a bipartite graph $G$ where every vertex has a capacity and a strict preference order on its neighbors. Furthermore, there is a cost function on the edge set. We assume $G$ admits a perfect matching, i.e.,…

A theorem of A. Schrijver asserts that a $d$-regular bipartite graph on $2n$ vertices has at least $$\left(\frac{(d-1)^{d-1}}{d^{d-2}}\right)^n$$ perfect matchings. L. Gurvits gave an extension of Schrijver's theorem for matchings of…
