Cycle Factors and Renewal Theory

Abstract: For which values of k does a uniformly chosen 3-regular graph G on n vertices typically contain n=k vertex-disjoint k-cycles (a k-cycle factor)? To date, this has been answered for k D n and for k log n; the former, the Hamiltonicity problem, was finally answered in the affirmative by Robinson and Wormald in 1992, while the answer in the latter case is negative since with high probability (w.h.p.) most vertices do not lie on k-cycles.A major role in our study of this problem is played by renewal processes with… Show more

“…Though we haven't much non‐verbal evidence, this suggestion does seem to have received quite a bit of attention, but, absent any serious progress, seems not to have produced anything in print. Here and in the companion paper we establish Conjecture for combs. Theorem There exists some fixed C such that for every n and k | n, the random graph G(n,Clognn) w.h.p.…”

“…While this does not so far seem to be leading to a proof of Conjecture , it is plausible that the methods of paper at least extend to any (bounded‐degree) tree with o(n) leaves.…”

“…The first spanning structures considered in graphs were perfect matchings and Hamilton cycles (see also , Chapter 8] and references therein). More recently, the thresholds for the appearance of (bounded degree) spanning trees were studied as well, for the currently best bounds see .…”

“…Observe that, for example for k = √ n, combs neither have linearly many leaves nor linear sized bare paths. Kahn, Lubetzky, and Wormald [84,83] established Conjecture 4.6 for combs. This was improved on and generalised by Montgomery [114] who proved the following result.…”
