Induced Matching Extendable Graph Powers

Published: 01 November 2006 Publication History

Abstract

A graph G is called induced matching extendable (shortly, IM-extendable) if every induced matching of G is included in a perfect matching of G. A graph G is called strongly IM-extendable if every spanning supergraph of G is IM-extendable. The k-th power of a graph G, denoted by Gk, is the graph with vertex set V(G) in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if the distance between them in G is at most k.We obtain the following two results which give positive answers to two conjectures of Yuan.Result 1. If a connected graph G with |V(G)| even is locally connected, then G2 is strongly IM-extendable.Result 2. If G is a 2-connected graph with |V(G)| even, then G3 is strongly IM-extendable.
