An edge-weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ is called stable if the value of a maximum-weight matching equals the value of a maximum-weight fractional matching. Stable graphs play an important role in some interesting game theory problems, such as…

A {\it semi-proper orientation} of a given graph $G$ is a function $(D,w)$ that assigns an orientation $D(e)$ and a positive integer weight $ w(e)$ to each edge $e$ such that for every two adjacent vertices $v$ and $u$, $S_{(D,w)}(v) \neq…

The paper studies wsat$(G,H)$ which is the minimum number of edges in a weakly $H$-saturated subgraph of $G$. We prove that wsat$(K_n,H)$ is `stable' - remains the same after independent removal of every edge of $K_n$ with constant…
