Inspired by applications of perfect graphs in combinatorial optimization, Chv{a}tal defined t-perfect graphs in 1970s. The long efforts of characterizing t-perfect graphs started immediately, but embarrassingly, even a working conjecture on it is still missing after nearly 50 years. Unlike perfect graphs, t-perfect graphs are not closed under substitution or complementation. A full characterization of t-perfection with respect to substitution has been obtained by Benchetrit in his Ph.D. thesis. Through the present work we attempt to understand t-perfection with respect to complementation. In particular, we show that there are only five pairs of graphs such that both the graphs and their complements are minimally t-imperfect.
Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices. For $iin {0,1}$ and a connected graph $G$, a spanning forest $F$ of $G$ is called an $i$-perfect forest if every tree in $F$ is an induced subgraph of $G$ and exactly $i$ vertices of $F$ have even degree (including
A well-known conjecture by Lovasz and Plummer from the 1970s asserted that a bridgeless cubic graph has exponentially many perfect matchings. It was solved in the affirmative by Esperet et al. (Adv. Math. 2011). On the other hand, Chudnovsky and Seym
Let $V$ be a set of cardinality $v$ (possibly infinite). Two graphs $G$ and $G$ with vertex set $V$ are {it isomorphic up to complementation} if $G$ is isomorphic to $G$ or to the complement $bar G$ of $G$. Let $k$ be a non-negative integer, $G$ and
In this paper we further investigate the well-studied problem of finding a perfect matching in a regular bipartite graph. The first non-trivial algorithm, with running time $O(mn)$, dates back to K{o}nigs work in 1916 (here $m=nd$ is the number of ed
We prove that, for any $tge 3$, there exists a constant $c=c(t)>0$ such that any $d$-regular $n$-vertex graph with the second largest eigenvalue in absolute value~$lambda$ satisfying $lambdale c d^{t-1}/n^{t-2}$ contains vertex-disjoint copies of $K_
