A spanning subgraph $F$ of $G$ is called a path factor if every component of $F$ is a path of order at least 2. Let $k\geq2$ be an integer. A $P_{\geq k}$-factor of $G$ means a path factor in which every component has at least $k$ vertices.…

A graph $G$ of order $n$ is said to be $k$-factor-critical for integers $1\leq k< n$, if the removal of any $k$ vertices results in a graph with a perfect matching. A $k$-factor-critical graph is minimal if for every edge, the deletion of…

A graph $G$ is called $k$-factor-critical if after deleting any $k$ vertices the remaining subgraph still has a perfect matching. Fan and Lin [Adv. in Appl. Math. 174 (2026) 103019] posed an adjacency spectral condition for a graph with…

For a graph $G$, the spectral radius of $G$ is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. A connected factor of $G$ is a connected spanning subgraph of $G$. For example, a spanning tree of $G$ is a 1-connected factor of $G$. Let $G$ be…

For a given graph $R$, a graph $G$ is $R$-free if $G$ does not contain $R$ as an induced subgraph. It is known that every $2$-tough graph with at least three vertices has a $2$-factor. In graphs with restricted structures, it was shown that…
