Large rainbow matchings in large graphs
A \textit{rainbow subgraph} of an edge-colored graph is a subgraph whose
edges have distinct colors. The \textit{color degree} of a vertex is the
number of different colors on edges incident to . We show that if is
large enough (namely, ), then each -vertex graph with
minimum color degree at least contains a rainbow matching of size at least
A generalization of heterochromatic graphs
In 2006, Suzuki, and Akbari & Alipour independently presented a necessary and
sufficient condition for edge-colored graphs to have a heterochromatic spanning
tree, where a heterochromatic spanning tree is a spanning tree whose edges have
distinct colors. In this paper, we propose -chromatic graphs as a
generalization of heterochromatic graphs. An edge-colored graph is
-chromatic if each color appears on at most edges. We also
present a necessary and sufficient condition for edge-colored graphs to have an
-chromatic spanning forest with exactly components. Moreover, using this
criterion, we show that a -chromatic graph of order with
has an -chromatic spanning forest with exactly
() components if for any
color .Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure
Existences of rainbow matchings and rainbow matching covers
Let be an edge-coloured graph. A rainbow subgraph in is a subgraph
such that its edges have distinct colours. The minimum colour degree
of is the smallest number of distinct colours on the edges
incident with a vertex of . We show that every edge-coloured graph on
vertices with contains a rainbow matching
of size at least , which improves the previous result for .
Let be the maximum number of edges of the same
colour incident with a vertex of . We also prove that if and
, then can be edge-decomposed into at most
rainbow matchings. This result is sharp and improves a
result of LeSaulnier and West
