Given a signing $\sigma\colon E(K_{n,n})\to\{-1,+1\}$ of the complete bipartite graph, when does $K_{n,n}$ admit a $1$-factorization in which every perfect matching has discrepancy bounded below by a positive absolute constant? Unlike the…

Given a 2-edge-coloring $f : E(K_n) \rightarrow \{\pm 1\}$, the discrepancy of a subgraph $F \subseteq K_n$ is defined as $\left| \sum_{e \in E(F)} f(e) \right|$. Erd\H{o}s, F\"uredi, Loebl and S\'os showed that if $F$ is an $n$-vertex tree…

In this paper we prove the following results (via a unified approach) for all sufficiently large $n$: (i) [$1$-factorization conjecture] Suppose that $n$ is even and $D\geq 2\lceil n/4\rceil -1$. Then every $D$-regular graph $G$ on $n$…

We show that for all graphs H of size n, the complete graph $K_{2n+1}$ has an $H$-decomposition.

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, let $bc(G)$ denote the minimum number of pairwise edge disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs of $G$ so that each edge of $G$ belongs to exactly one of them. It is easy to see that for every graph $G$, $bc(G) \leq n…

In this note, we prove that there exists a universal constant $c=\frac{43}{50}$ such that for every $k\in \mathbb{N}$ and every $d<k/2$, every $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices and with minimum $d$-degree at least…

Win [\emph{J. Graph Theory} {\bf 6}(1982), 489--492] conjectured that a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices contains $k$ disjoint perfect matchings, if the degree sum of any two nonadjacent vertices is at least $n+k-2$, where $n$ is even and $n\geq…

A $1$-factorization of the complete multigraph $\lambda K_{2n}$ is said to be indecomposable if it cannot be represented as the union of $1$-factorizations of $\lambda_0 K_{2n}$ and $(\lambda-\lambda_0) K_{2n}$, where $\lambda_0<\lambda$.…

The positive discrepancy of a graph $G$ of edge density $p=e(G)/\binom{v(G)}{2}$ is defined as $$\mbox{disc}^{+}(G)=\max_{U\subset V(G)}e(G[U])-p\binom{|U|}{2}.$$ In 1993, Alon proved (using the equivalent terminology of minimum bisections)…

A $1$-factorization of a graph $G$ is a collection of edge-disjoint perfect matchings whose union is $E(G)$. A trivial necessary condition for $G$ to admit a $1$-factorization is that $|V(G)|$ is even and $G$ is regular; the converse is…

Given a graph $H$, a perfect $H$-factor in a graph $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of $H$ spanning $G$. K\"uhn and Osthus showed that the minimum degree threshold for a graph $G$ to contain a perfect $H$-factor is either given…

A decomposition of a multigraph $G$ is a partition of its edges into subgraphs $G(1), \ldots , G(k)$. It is called an $r$-factorization if every $G(i)$ is $r$-regular and spanning. If $G$ is a subgraph of $H$, a decomposition of $G$ is said…

The Ascending Subgraph Decomposition (ASD) Conjecture asserts that every graph $G$ with ${n+1\choose 2}$ edges admits an edge decomposition $G=H_1\oplus\cdots \oplus H_n$ such that $H_i$ has $i$ edges and it is isomorphic to a subgraph of…

In this paper, we show that every highly edge-connected graph $G$, under a necessary and sufficient degree condition, can be edge-decomposed into $k$ factors $G_1,\ldots, G_k$ such that for each vertex $v\in V(G_i)$ with $1\le i\le k$,…

Let $k$, $\lambda$ and $\mu$ be positive integers. A decomposition of a multigraph $ \lambda G$ into edge-disjoint subgraphs $G_1, \ldots , G_k$ is said to be \emph{enclosed} by a decomposition of a multigraph $\mu H$ into edge-disjoint…

A tree containing exactly two non-pendant vertices is called a double-star. Let $k_1$ and $k_2$ be two positive integers. The double-star with degree sequence $(k_1+1, k_2+1, 1, \ldots, 1)$ is denoted by $S_{k_1, k_2}$. If $G$ is a cubic…

We show that for any integer $r\ge 2$, there exists a constant $c>0$ such that for every sufficiently large integer $n$, every $((r-1)n+1)$-regular graph $G$ on $rn$ vertices has at least $c2^{rn}$ subsets $S\subseteq V(G)$ such that $G[S]$…
