Vertex‐regular 1‐factorizations in infinite graphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The existence of 1-factorizations of an infinite complete equipartite graph Km[n] (with m parts of size n) admitting a vertex-regular automorphism group G is known only when n=1 and m is countable (that is, for countable complete graphs) and, in addition, G is a finitely generated abelian group G of order m. In this paper, we show that a vertex-regular 1-factorization of Km[n] under the group G exists if and only if G has a subgroup H of order n whose index in G is m. Furthermore, we provide a sufficient condition for an infinite Cayley graph to have a regular 1-factorization. Finally, we construct 1-factorizations that contain a given subfactorization, both having a vertex-regular automorphism group.
