1-factorisation of the Composition of Regular Graphs

1-factorisation of the Composition of Regular Graphs
1-factorisation of the Composition of Regular Graphs
1-factorability of the composition of graphs is studied. The followings sufficient conditions are proved: $G[H]$ is 1-factorable if $G$ and $H$ are regular and at least one of the following holds: (i) Graphs $G$ and $H$ both contain a 1-factor, (ii) $G$ is 1-factorable (iii) $H$ is 1-factorable. It is also shown that the tensor product $G\otimes H$ is 1-factorable, if at least one of two graphs is 1-factorable. This result in turn implies that the strong tensor product $G\otimes' H$ is 1-factorable, if $G$ is 1-factorable.

Abstract

1-factorability of the composition of graphs is studied. The followings sufficient conditions are proved: $G[H]$ is 1-factorable if $G$ and $H$ are regular and at least one of the following holds: (i) Graphs $G$ and $H$ both contain a 1-factor, (ii) $G$ is 1-factorable (iii) $H$ is 1-factorable. It is also shown that the tensor product $G\otimes H$ is 1-factorable, if at least one of two graphs is 1-factorable. This result in turn implies that the strong tensor product $G\otimes' H$ is 1-factorable, if $G$ is 1-factorable.
