On the balanceability of some graph classes
Abstract
Given a graph , a 2-coloring of the edges of is said to contain a balanced copy of if we can find a copy of such that half of its edges are in each color class. If, for every sufficiently large , there exists an integer such that every 2-coloring of with more than edges in each color class contains a balanced copy of , then we say that is balanceable. Balanceability was introduced by Caro, Hansberg and Montejano, who also gave a structural characterization of balanceable graphs. In this paper, we extend the study of balanceability by finding new sufficient conditions for a graph to be balanceable or not. We use those conditions to fully characterize the balanceability of graph classes such as rectangular and triangular grids, as well as a special class of circulant graphs.
