Abstract

A graph is considered to be induced-matching extendable (bipartite matching extendable) if every induced matching (bipartite matching) of G is included in a perfect matching of G. The induced-matching extendability and bipartite-matching extendability of graphs have been of interest. By letting G = Cm V Pn (m ≥ 3 and n ≥ 1) be the graph join of Cm (the cycle with m vertices) and Pn (the path with n vertices) contains a perfect matching, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for G to be induced-matching extendable and bipartite-matching extendable.
