Given graphs [math] and [math], a perfect [math]-tiling in [math] is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of [math] in [math] that together cover all the vertices in [math]. The study of the minimum degree threshold forcing a perfect [math]-tiling in a graph [math] has a long history, culminating in the Kühn–Osthus theorem [D. Kühn and D. Osthus, Combinatorica, 29 (2009), pp. 65–107] which resolves this problem, up to an additive constant, for all graphs [math]. In this paper we initiate the study of the analogous question for edge-ordered graphs. In particular, we characterize for which edge-ordered graphs [math] this problem is well-defined. We also apply the absorbing method to asymptotically determine the minimum degree threshold for forcing a perfect [math]-tiling in an edge-ordered graph, where [math] is any fixed monotone path.","PeriodicalId":49530,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141529751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Sidorenko bigraph is one whose density in a bigraphon [math] is minimized precisely when [math] is constant. Several techniques in the literature to prove the Sidorenko property consist of decomposing (typically in a tree decomposition) the bigraph into smaller building blocks with stronger properties. One prominent such technique is that of [math]-decompositions of Conlon and Lee, which uses weakly Hölder (or weakly norming) bigraphs as building blocks. In turn, to obtain weakly Hölder bigraphs, it is typical to use the chain of implications reflection bigraph [math] cut-percolating bigraph [math] weakly Hölder bigraph. In an earlier result by the author with Razborov, we provided a generalization of [math]-decompositions, called reflective tree decompositions, that uses much weaker building blocks, called induced-Sidorenko bigraphs, to also obtain Sidorenko bigraphs. In this paper, we show that “left-sided” versions of the concepts of reflection bigraph and cut-percolating bigraph yield a similar chain of implications: left-reflection bigraph [math] left-cut-percolating bigraph [math] induced-Sidorenko bigraph. We also show that under mild hypotheses the “left-sided” analogue of the weakly Hölder property (which is also obtained via a similar chain of implications) can be used to improve bounds on another result of Conlon and Lee that roughly says that bigraphs with enough vertices on the right side of each realized degree have the Sidorenko property.","PeriodicalId":49530,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141153959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An obstacle representation of a graph [math] consists of a set of pairwise disjoint simply connected closed regions and a one-to-one mapping of the vertices of [math] to points such that two vertices are adjacent in [math] if and only if the line segment connecting the two corresponding points does not intersect any obstacle. The obstacle number of a graph is the smallest number of obstacles in an obstacle representation of the graph in the plane such that all obstacles are simple polygons. It is known that the obstacle number of each [math]-vertex graph is [math] [M. Balko, J. Cibulka, and P. Valtr, Discrete Comput. Geom., 59 (2018), pp. 143–164] and that there are [math]-vertex graphs whose obstacle number is [math] [V. Dujmović and P. Morin, Electron. J. Combin., 22 (2015), 3.1]. We improve this lower bound to [math] for simple polygons and to [math] for convex polygons. To obtain these stronger bounds, we improve known estimates on the number of [math]-vertex graphs with bounded obstacle number, solving a conjecture by Dujmović and Morin. We also show that if the drawing of some [math]-vertex graph is given as part of the input, then for some drawings [math] obstacles are required to turn them into an obstacle representation of the graph. Our bounds are asymptotically tight in several instances. We complement these combinatorial bounds by two complexity results. First, we show that computing the obstacle number of a graph [math] is fixed-parameter tractable in the vertex cover number of [math]. Second, we show that, given a graph [math] and a simple polygon [math], it is NP-hard to decide whether [math] admits an obstacle representation using [math] as the only obstacle.","PeriodicalId":49530,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141146395","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, it was proved by Bérczi and Schwarcz that the problem of factorizing a matroid into rainbow bases with respect to a given partition of its ground set is algorithmically intractable. On the other hand, many special cases were left open. We first show that the problem remains hard if the matroid is graphic, answering a question of Bérczi and Schwarcz. As another special case, we consider the problem of deciding whether a given digraph can be factorized into subgraphs which are spanning trees in the underlying sense and respect upper bounds on the indegree of every vertex. We prove that this problem is also hard. This answers a question of Frank. In the second part of the article, we deal with the relaxed problem of covering the ground set of a matroid by rainbow bases. Among other results, we show that there is a linear function [math] such that every matroid that can be factorized into [math] bases for some [math] can be covered by [math] rainbow bases if every partition class contains at most 2 elements.","PeriodicalId":49530,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140883083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
