Let $G$ be a graph and let $f$ be a positive integer-valued function on $V(G)$ satisfying $2m\le f\le b$, where $b$ and $m$ are two positive integers with $b\ge 4m^2$. In this paper, we show that if $G$ is $b^2$-tough and $|V(G)|\ge b^2$,…

Let $a$ and $b$ be positive integers such that $a\leq b$ and $a\equiv b\pmod 2$. We say that $G$ has all $(a, b)$-parity factors if $G$ has an $h$-factor for every function $h: V(G) \rightarrow \{a,a+2,\ldots,b-2,b\}$ with $b|V(G)|$ even…

For any graph (hypergraph) $G$ with vertex set $V$ and edge set $E$, we define its incidence bipartite graph $\mathcal{I}(G)$ as the bipartite graph with bipartition $(E, V)$, where an edge $e \in E$ is adjacent to a vertex $v \in V$ in…

Let $G$ be a graph and let $f$ be a positive integer-valued function on $V(G)$. Assume that for all $S\subseteq V(G)$, $$\sum_{v\in I(G\setminus S)}f(v)(f(v)+1)\le |S|,$$ where $I(G\setminus S)$ denotes the set of isolated vertices of…

Let $k$, $m$ and $r$ be three integers such that $2\leq k\leq m\leq r$. Let $G$ be a $2r$-regular, $2m$-edge-connected graph of odd order. We obtain some sufficient conditions, which guarantee $G-v$ contains a $k$-factor for all $v\in…

A graph $G$ is equimatchable if any matching in $G$ is a subset of a maximum-size matching. It is known that any $2$-connected equimatchable graph is either bipartite or factor-critical. We prove that for any vertex $v$ of a $2$-connected…

In this paper, we give the following result: If $D$ is a digraph of order $n$, and if $d_{D}^{+}(u) + d_{D}^{-}(v) \ge n$ for every two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ with $(u, v) \notin A(D)$, then $D$ has a directed $2$-factor with exactly…

Let $k$ be a positive integer and let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. A subset $D \subseteq V(G)$ is a $k$-dominating set if every vertex outside $D$ is adjacent to at least $k$ vertices in $D$. The $k$-domination number…

The $k$th power of a graph $G$, denoted $G^k$, has the same vertex set as $G$, and two vertices are adjacent in $G^k$ if and only if there exists a path between them in $G$ of length at most $k$. A $K_r$-factor in a graph is a spanning…
