For $d \ge 1$, $s \ge 0$ a $(d, d+s)$-{\em graph} is a graph whose degrees all lie in the interval $\{d, d+1, \ldots, d + s\}$. For $r \ge 1$, $a \ge 0$, an $(r, r+a)$-{\em factor} of a graph $G$ is a spanning $(r, r+a)$-subgraph of $G$. An…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and let $H:V(G)\rightarrow 2^N$ be a set function associating with $G$. An $H$-factor of graph $G$ is a spanning subgraphs $F$ such that $$d_F(v)\in H(v){4em}\hbox{for every}v\in V(G).$$ Let…

For a connected graph $G$, let $\mu(G)$ denote the distance spectral radius of $G$. A matching in a graph $G$ is a set of disjoint edges of $G$. The maximum size of a matching in $G$ is called the matching number of $G$, denoted by…

Given $k\ge 1$, a $k$-proper partition of a graph $G$ is a partition ${\mathcal P}$ of $V(G)$ such that each part $P$ of ${\mathcal P}$ induces a $k$-connected subgraph of $G$. We prove that if $G$ is a graph of order $n$ such that…

It is well-known that Chv\'{a}tal and Erd\H{o}s stated that any graph of order at least three whose independence number is no greater than its connectivity is Hamiltonian; that any graph whose independence number is no greater than its…

A $1$-factor in an $n$-vertex graph $G$ is a collection of $\frac{n}{2}$ vertex-disjoint edges and a $1$-factorization of $G$ is a partition of its edges into edge-disjoint $1$-factors. Clearly, a $1$-factorization of $G$ cannot exist…

A graph $G$ is said to be equitably $c$-colorable if its vertices can be partitioned into $c$ independent sets that pairwise differ in size by at most one. Chen, Lih, and Wu conjectured that every connected graph $G$ with maximum degree…

An L-factor of a graph G is a spanning subgraph of G whose every component is a 3-vertex path. Let v(G) be the number of vertices of G and d(G) the domination number of G. A claw is a graph with four vertices and three edges incident to the…

A factor of a graph is a spanning subgraph satisfying some given conditions. An earlier survey of factors can be traced back to the Akiyama and Kano [J. Graph Theory, 1985, 9: 1-42] in which they described the characterization of factors in…

A claw-free graph is a graph that does not contain $K_{1,3}$ as an induced subgraph, and a 2-factor is a 2-regular spanning subgraph of a graph. In 1997, Ryj\'{a}\v{c}ek introduced the closure concept of claw-free graphs, and Hamilton…

Let $G$ be a connected graph. If $G$ contains a matching of size $k$, and every matching of size $k$ is contained in a perfect matching of $G$, then $G$ is said to be \emph{$k$-extendable}. A $k$-regular spanning subgraph of $G$ is called a…

A classical result by Hajnal and Szemer\'edi from 1970 determines the minimal degree conditions necessary to guarantee for a graph to contain a $K_r$-factor. Namely, any graph on $n$ vertices, with minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge…
