关于$k$-部图的独立断面因子

On factors of independent transversals in $k$-partite graphs

Raphael Yuster

摘要:

一个$[k,n,1]$-图是一个$k$-部图,它的部分的序为$n$,使得由任何一对部分导出的二部图是一个匹配.这样的图中的独立断面是与每个部分相交于单个顶点的独立集合。独立断面的因子是$n$成对不相交的独立断面的集合。设$f(k)$是最小整数$n_0$,使得每个$[k,n,1]$-图都有一个独立横截因子,假设$n \ge n_0$.几个已知的结构暗示,对于$k \ge 2$,如果$k$是偶数,则为$f(k)=k$,如果$k$是奇数,则为$f(k)=k+1$。虽然一个简单的贪婪算法的基础上迭代霍尔定理表明,$f(k) \le 2k-2$,没有更好的界限是已知的,事实上,有例子表明,界$2k-2$是紧的贪婪算法。在这里,我们显着提高贪婪算法的界限,并证明$f(k) \le 1.78k$的所有$k$足够大,回答了一个问题的MacKeigan。

英文摘要:

A $[k,n,1]$-graph is a $k$-partite graph with parts of order $n$ such that the bipartite graph induced by any pair of parts is a matching. An independent transversal in such a graph is an independent set that intersects each part in a single vertex. A factor of independent transversals is a set of $n$ pairwise-disjoint independent transversals. Let $f(k)$ be the smallest integer $n_0$ such that every $[k,n,1]$-graph has a factor of independent transversals assuming $n \ge n_0$. Several known conjectures imply that for $k \ge 2$, $f(k)=k$ if $k$ is even and $f(k)=k+1$ if $k$ is odd. While a simple greedy algorithm based on iterating Hall's Theorem shows that $f(k) \le 2k-2$, no better bound is known and in fact, there are instances showing that the bound $2k-2$ is tight for the greedy algorithm. Here we significantly improve upon the greedy algorithm bound and prove that $f(k) \le 1.78k$ for all $k$ sufficiently large, answering a question of MacKeigan.
