We study minimal free resolutions of edge ideals of bipartite graphs. We associate a directed graph to a bipartite graph whose edge ideal is unmixed, and give expressions for the regularity and the depth of the edge ideal in terms of…

A perfect matching in the complete graph on $2k$ vertices is a set of edges such that no two edges have a vertex in common and every vertex is covered exactly once. Two perfect matchings are said to be $t$-intersecting if they have at least…

In this paper, we focus on the class of complete $S$-partite graphs, for $S$ an undirected graph possibly with self-loops, and address the problem of finding largest $2$-regular subgraphs of these graphs, which can be formulated as an…

A maximum priority matching is a matching in an undirected graph that maximizes a priority score defined with respect to given vertex priorities. An earlier paper showed how to find maximum priority matchings in unweighted graphs. This…

A graph $G$ whose edges are coloured (not necessarily properly) contains a full rainbow matching if there is a matching $M$ that contains exactly one edge of each colour. We refute several conjectures on matchings in hypergraphs and full…

Thomassen [Problem 1 in Factorizing regular graphs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 141 (2020), 343-351] asked whether every $r$-edge-connected $r$-regular graph of even order has $r-2$ pairwise disjoint perfect matchings. We show that this is…

We prove that the empirical spectral distribution of a (d_L, d_R)-biregular, bipartite random graph, under certain conditions, converges to a symmetrization of the Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur distribution of random matrix theory. This convergence…

We study the classical weighted perfect matchings problem for bipartite graphs or sometimes referred to as the assignment problem, i.e., given a weighted bipartite graph $G = (U\cup V,E)$ with weights $w : E \rightarrow \mathcal{R}$ we are…

Polynomial algorithms are given for the following two problems: given a graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, where $m \ge 3 n^{3/2}$, find a complete balanced bipartite subgraph with parts about $\ln n/(\ln (n^2/m))$, given a graph with…

In this paper, the problem of matching pairs of correlated random graphs with multi-valued edge attributes is considered. Graph matching problems of this nature arise in several settings of practical interest including social network…

In [7], Higashitani, Kummer, and Micha{\l}ek pose a conjecture about the symmetric edge polytopes of complete multipartite graphs and confirm it for a number of families in the bipartite case. We confirm that conjecture for a number of new…

A graph is {\em perfect} if, in all its induced subgraphs, the size of a largest clique is equal to the chromatic number. Examples of perfect graphs include bipartite graphs, line graphs of bipartite graphs and the complements of such…

We study how many comparability subgraphs are needed to partition the edge set of a perfect graph. We show that many classes of perfect graphs can be partitioned into (at most) two comparability subgraphs and this holds for almost all…
