The decision problem of perfect matchings in uniform hypergraphs is famously an NP-complete problem. It has been shown by Keevash--Knox--Mycroft [STOC, 2013] that for every $\varepsilon>0$, such decision problem restricted to $k$-uniform…
Consider the random process in which the edges of a graph $G$ are added one by one in a random order. A classical result states that if $G$ is the complete graph $K_{2n}$ or the complete bipartite graph $K_{n,n}$, then typically a perfect…
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…
A perfect matching in a hypergraph is a set of edges that partition the set of vertices. We study the complexity of deciding the existence of a perfect matching in orderable and separable hypergraphs. We show that the class of orderable…
We study several extensions of the notion of perfect graphs to $k$-uniform hypergraphs.
Given positive integers k and r where 4 divides k and k/2 \leq r \leq k-1, we give a minimum r-degree condition that ensures a perfect matching in a k-uniform hypergraph. This condition is best possible and improves on work of Pikhurko who…
In this paper, we generalize the notions of perfect matchings, perfect 2-matchings to perfect k-matchings and give a necessary and sufficient condition for existence of perfect k-matchings. For bipartite graphs, we show that this k-matching…
A perfect matching in a 3-uniform hypergraph on $n=3k$ vertices is a subset of $\frac{n}{3}$ disjoint edges. We prove that if $H$ is a 3-uniform hypergraph on $n=3k$ vertices such that every vertex belongs to at least ${n-1\choose 2} -…
For a given hypergraph $H$ and a vertex $v\in V(H)$, consider a random matching $M$ chosen uniformly from the set of all matchings in $H.$ In $1995,$ Kahn conjectured that if $H$ is a $d$-regular linear $k$-uniform hypergraph, the…
Let k >= 2 and F be a linear k-uniform hypergraph with v vertices. We prove that if n is sufficiently large and v|n, then every quasirandom k-uniform hypergraph on n vertices with constant edge density and minimum degree $\Omega(n^{k-1})$…
A perfect matching in a 4-uniform hypergraph is a subset of $\lfloor\frac{n}{4}\rfloor$ disjoint edges. We prove that if $H$ is a sufficiently large 4-uniform hypergraph on $n=4k$ vertices such that every vertex belongs to more than…
We study Hamilton cycles and perfect matchings in a uniform attachment graph. In this random graph, vertices are added sequentially, and when a vertex $t$ is created, it makes $k$ independent and uniform choices from $\{1,\dots,t-1\}$ and…
We introduce a new procedure for generating the binomial random graph/hypergraph models, referred to as \emph{online sprinkling}. As an illustrative application of this method, we show that for any fixed integer $k\geq 3$, the binomial…
For each of the notions of hypergraph quasirandomness that have been studied, we identify a large class of hypergraphs F so that every quasirandom hypergraph H admits a perfect F-packing. An informal statement of a special case of our…
Let $H$ be a fixed graph on $v$ vertices. For an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with $n$ divisible by $v$, an $H$-{\em factor} of $G$ is a collection of $n/v$ copies of $H$ whose vertex sets partition $V(G)$. In this paper we consider the threshold…
R\"odl, Ruci\'nski, and Szemer\'edi determined the minimum $(k-1)$-degree threshold for the existence of fractional perfect matchings in $k$-uniform hypergrahs, and K\"uhn, Osthus, and Townsend extended this result by asymptotically…
Given positive integers k\geq 3 and r where k/2 \leq r \leq k-1, we give a minimum r-degree condition that ensures a perfect matching in a k-uniform hypergraph. This condition is best possible and improves on work of Pikhurko who gave an…
A $k$-matching of a graph $G$ is a function $f:E(G)\rightarrow\{0,1,2,\ldots,k\}$ with $\sum\limits_{e\in E_G(v)}f(e)\leq k$ for each vertex $v$ of $G$, where $E_G(v)$ is the set of edges incident with $v$ in $G$. A perfect $k$-matching of…
Let H be an r-partite r-graph, all of whose sides have the same size n. Suppose that there exist two sides of H, each satisfying the following condition: the degree of each legal (r-1)-tuple contained in the complement of this side is…
Suppose $k\nmid n$ and $H$ is an $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph. A near perfect matching in $H$ is a matching of size $\lfloor n/k\rfloor$. We give a divisibility barrier construction that prevents the existence of near perfect matchings…
