We say that a (di)graph G has a perfect H-packing if there exists a set of vertex-disjoint copies of H which cover all the vertices in G. The seminal Hajnal–Szemerédi theorem characterizes the minimum degree that ensures a graph G contains a perfect Kr-packing. In this paper we prove the following analogue for directed graphs: Suppose that T is a tournament on r vertices and G is a digraph of sufficiently large order n where r divides n. If G has minimum in- and outdegree at least (1−1/r)n then G contains a perfect T-packing.In the case when T is a cyclic triangle, this result verifies a recent conjecture of Czygrinow, Kierstead and Molla [4] (for large digraphs). Furthermore, in the case when T is transitive we conjecture that it suffices for every vertex in G to have sufficiently large indegree or outdegree. We prove this conjecture for transitive triangles and asymptotically for all r ⩾ 3. Our approach makes use of a result of Keevash and Mycroft [10] concerning almost perfect matchings in hypergraphs as well as the Directed Graph Removal Lemma [1, 6].

We show that the probability that a random graph $G\sim G(n,p)$ contains no Hamilton cycle is $(1+o(1))Pr(\delta (G) < 2)$ for all values of $p = p(n)$. We also prove an analogous result for perfect matchings.

AbstractLet G be a finite connected graph of order n, minimum degree δ and diameter d. The degree distance D′(G) of G is defined as ∑ {u,v}⊆V (G)(deg u+deg v) d(u,v), where deg w is the degree of vertex w and d(u,v) denotes the distance between u and v. In this paper, we find an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the degree distance in terms of order, minimum degree and diameter. In particular, we prove that \[ D^\prime (G)\le \frac {1}{4}\,dn\biggl (n-\frac {d}{3}(\delta +1)\biggr )^2+O(n^3). \] As a corollary, we obtain the bound D′ (G)≤n4 /(9(δ+1) )+O(n3) for a graph G of order n and minimum degree δ. This result, apart from improving on a result of Dankelmann et al. [‘On the degree distance of a graph’, Discrete Appl. Math.157 (2009), 2773–2777] for graphs of given order and minimum degree, completely settles a conjecture of Tomescu [‘Some extremal properties of the degree distance of a graph’, Discrete Appl. Math.98(1999), 159–163].

We determine the minimum degree sum of two adjacent vertices that ensures a perfect matching in a 3-uniform hypergraph without an isolated vertex. Suppose that $H$ is a 3-uniform hypergraph whose order $n$ is sufficiently large and divisible by $3$. If $H$ contains no isolated vertex and $\deg(u)+\deg(v) > \frac{2}{3}n^2-\frac{8}{3}n+2$ for any two vertices $u$ and $v$ that are contained in some edge of $H$, then $H$ contains a perfect matching. This bound is tight and the (unique) extremal hyergraph is a different space barrier from the one for the corresponding Dirac problem.

A super $(d,\epsilon)$-regular graph on $2n$ vertices is a bipartite graph on the classes of vertices $V_1$ and $V_2$, where $|V_1|=|V_2|=n$, in which the minimum degree and the maximum degree are between $ (d-\epsilon)n$ and $ (d+\epsilon) n$, and for every $U \subset V_1, W \subset V_2$ with $|U| \geq \epsilon n$, $|W| \geq \epsilon n$, $|{{e(U,W) }\over{|U||W|}}-{{e(V_1,V_2)}\over{|V_1||V_2|}}| < \epsilon.$ We prove that for every $1>d >2 \epsilon >0$ and $n>n_0(\epsilon)$, the number of perfect matchings in any such graph is at least $(d-2\epsilon)^n n!$ and at most $(d+2 \epsilon)^n n!$. The proof relies on the validity of two well known conjectures for permanents; the Minc conjecture, proved by Brégman, and the van der Waerden conjecture, proved by Falikman and Egorichev.
