A Hamiltonian decomposition of $G$ is a partition of its edge set into disjoint Hamilton cycles. Manikandan and Paulraja conjectured that if $G$ and $H$ are Hamilton cycle decomposable circulant graphs with at least one of them is…
A graph $G$ has a $C_k$-decomposition if its edge set can be partitioned into cycles of length $k$. We show that if $\delta(G)\geq 2|G|/3-1$, then $G$ has a $C_4$-decomposition, and if $\delta(G)\geq |G|/2$, then $G$ has a…
We say a graph $H$ decomposes a graph $G$ if there exists a partition of the edges of $G$ into subgraphs isomorphic to $H$. We seek to characterize necessary and sufficient conditions for a cycle of length $k$, denoted $C_k$, to decompose…
Given a graph $G$, a decomposition of $G$ is a partition of its edges. A graph is $(d, h)$-decomposable if its edge set can be partitioned into a $d$-degenerate graph and a graph with maximum degree at most $h$. For $d \le 4$, we are…
A {\em $(d,h)$-decomposition} of a graph $G$ is an order pair $(D,H)$ such that $H$ is a subgraph of $G$ where $H$ has the maximum degree at most $h$ and $D$ is an acyclic orientation of $G-E(H)$ of maximum out-degree at most $d$. A graph…
A $T$-decomposition of a graph $G$ is a set of edge-disjoint copies of $T$ in $G$ that cover the edge set of $G$. Graham and H\"aggkvist (1989) conjectured that any $2\ell$-regular graph $G$ admits a $T$-decomposition if $T$ is a tree with…
A decomposition of a graph is a set of subgraphs whose edges partition those of $G$. The 3-decomposition conjecture posed by Hoffmann-Ostenhof in 2011 states that every connected cubic graph can be decomposed into a spanning tree, a…
Let $G$ be a graph. We say that $G$ is perfectly divisible if for each induced subgraph $H$ of $G$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into $A$ and $B$ such that $H[A]$ is perfect and $\omega(H[B])<\omega(H)$. We use $P_t$ and $C_t$ to denote a path…
As usual, $P_n$ ($n \geq 1$) denotes the path on $n$ vertices, and $C_n$ ($n \geq 3$) denotes the cycle on $n$ vertices. For a family $\mathcal{H}$ of graphs, we say that a graph $G$ is $\mathcal{H}$-free if no induced subgraph of $G$ is…
We prove the following 30-year old conjecture of Gy\H{o}ri and Tuza: the edges of every $n$-vertex graph $G$ can be decomposed into complete graphs $C_1,\ldots,C_\ell$ of orders two and three such that $|C_1|+\cdots+|C_\ell|\le…
In a graph $G$, let $\mu_G(xy)$ denote the number of edges between $x$ and $y$ in $G$. Let $\lambda K_{v,u}$ be the graph $(V\cup U,E)$ with $|V|=v$, $|U|=u$, and \[ \mu_G(xy)=\begin{cases} \lambda &\mbox{if $x\in U$ and $y\in V$ or if…
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…
We define a grid graph $G$ as a Cartesian product of path-graphs $P_n$ or cycle-graphs $C_n$ as shown in Figure 1, and we ask, when can the edge set of a complete graph be expressed as a disjoint union of graphs isomorphic to $G$? That is,…
A graph $G$ is perfectly divisible if, for every induced subgraph $H$ of $G$, either $V(H)$ is a stable set or admits a partition into two sets $X_1$ and $X_2$ such that $\omega(H[X_1]) < \omega(H)$ and $H[X_2]$ is a perfect graph. In this…
A multigraph G is triangle decomposable if its edge set can be partitioned into subsets, each of which induces a triangle of G, and rationally triangle decomposable if its triangles can be assigned rational weights such that for each edge e…
If $H$ is (or is isomorphic to) a subgraph of $G$, $H$ is said to {\it divide} $G$ if there is an edge-decomposition of $G$ by copies of $E(H)$, the edge set of $H$. A more restrictive version of this is when there is a subgroup ${\cal H}$…
We consider a family of toroidal graphs, denoted by $\mathcal{T}_{i, j}$, which contain neither $i$-cycles nor $j$-cycles. A graph $G$ is $(d, h)$-decomposable if it contains a subgraph $H$ with $\Delta(H) \leq h$ such that $G - E(H)$ is a…
Goedgebeur and Schaudt [J. Graph Theory 87 (2018) 188-207] conjectured that all 4-vertex-critical $(P_7,C_3)$-free graphs belongs to the family $\cal G$, which consists of seven explicitly defined graphs. In this paper, we establish a…
An even-cycle decomposition of a graph G is a partition of E(G) into cycles of even length. Evidently, every Eulerian bipartite graph has an even-cycle decomposition. Seymour (1981) proved that every 2-connected loopless Eulerian planar…
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…
