A maximal $\varepsilon$-near perfect matching is a maximal matching which covers at least $(1-\varepsilon)|V(G)|$ vertices. In this paper, we study the number of maximal near perfect matchings in generalized quasirandom and dense graphs. We…

Finding the origin of short phrases propagating through the web has been formalized by Leskovec et al. [ACM SIGKDD 2009] as DAG Partitioning: given an arc-weighted directed acyclic graph on $n$ vertices and $m$ arcs, delete arcs with total…

For a graph $G$ define the parameters $\ell(G)$ and $L(G)$ as the minimum and maximum value of $\nu(G\backslash F)$, where $F$ is a maximum matching of $G$ and $\nu(G)$ is the matching number of $G$. In this paper, we show that there is a…

A maximal matching $M$ that consists of independent edges is a subgraph of a simple and undirected graph $G$ for which $G-M$ forms an independent set. A graph $G$ is called equimatchable if all maximal matchings have the same number of…

The Maximum Induced Matching problem asks to find the maximum $k$ such that, given a graph $G=(V,E)$, can we find a subset of vertices $S$ of size $k$ for which every vertices $v$ in the induced graph $G[S]$ has exactly degree $1$. In this…

A matching $M$ of a graph $G$ is maximal if it is not a proper subset of any other matching in $G$. Maximal matchings are much less known and researched than their maximum and perfect counterparts. In particular, almost nothing is known…
