Over the past half century, the rigidity of graphs in $R^2$ has aroused a great deal of interest. Lov\'{a}sz and Yemini (1982) proved that every $6$-connected graph is rigid in $R^2$. Jackson and Jord\'{a}n (2005) provided a similar…

We prove that every connected cubic graph with $n$ vertices has a maximal matching of size at most $\frac{5}{12} n+ \frac{1}{2}$. This confirms the cubic case of a conjecture of Baste, F\"urst, Henning, Mohr and Rautenbach (2019) on regular…
