Perfect matching cuts partitioning a graph into complementary subgraphs
Diane Castonguay, Erika M. M. Coelho, Hebert Coelho, Julliano R. Nascimento, Uéverton S. Souza, 2025, original scientific article

Abstract: In PARTITION INTO COMPLEMENTARY SUBGRAPHS (COMP-SUB) we are given a graph G = (V, E), and an edge set property Π, and asked whether G can be decomposed into two graphs, H and its complement H̄, for some graph H, in such a way that the edge cut [V(H), V(H̄)] satisfies the property Π. Motivated by previous work, we consider COMP-SUB(Π) when the property Π=PM specifies that the edge cut of the decomposition is a perfect matching. We prove that COMP-SUB(PM) is GI-hard when the graph G is C_5-free or G is {C_k ≥ 7, C̄_k ≥ 7}-free. On the other hand, we show that COMP-SUB(PM) is polynomial-time solvable on hole-free graphs and on P5-free graphs. Furthermore, we present characterizations of COMP-SUB(PM) on chordal, distance-hereditary, and extended P_4-laden graphs.

On cyclic edge-connectivity of fullerenes
Klavdija Kutnar, Dragan Marušič, 2008, original scientific article

Abstract: A graph is said to be cyclically ▫$k$▫-edge-connected, if at least ▫$k$▫ edges must be removed to disconnect it into two components, each containing a cycle. Such a set of ▫$k$▫ edges is called a cyclic-k-edge cutset and it is called a trivial cyclic-k-edge cutset if at least one of the resulting two components induces a single ▫$k$▫-cycle. It is known that fullerenes, that is, 3-connected cubic planar graphs all of whose faces are pentagons and hexagons, are cyclically 5-edge-connected. In this article it is shown that a fullerene ▫$F$▫ containing a nontrivial cyclic-5-edge cutset admits two antipodal pentacaps, that is, two antipodal pentagonal faces whose neighboring faces are also pentagonal. Moreover, it is shown that ▫$F$▫ has a Hamilton cycle, and as a consequence at least ▫$15 \cdot 2^{n/20-1/2}$▫ perfect matchings, where ▫$n$▫ is the order of ▫$F$▫.
