A note on Hamilton decompositions of even-regular multigraphs

Combinatorics 2023-12-18 v1

Abstract

In this note, we prove that every even regular multigraph on nn vertices with multiplicity at most rr and minimum degree at least rn/2+o(n)rn/2 + o(n) has a Hamilton decomposition. This generalises a result of Vaughan who proved an asymptotic version of the multigraph 11-factorisation conjecture. We derive our result by proving a more general result which states that dense regular multidigraphs that are robust outexpanders have a Hamilton decomposition. This in turn is derived from the corresponding result of K\"uhn and Osthus about simple digraphs.
