The game colouring number gcol(G) of a graphGis the leastksuch that, if two players take turns choosing the vertices of a graph, then either of them can ensure that every vertex has fewer thankneighbours chosen before it, regardless of what choices the other player makes. Clearly gcol(G) ≤ Δ(G)+1. Sauer and Spencer [20] proved that if two graphsG1andG2onnvertices satisfy 2Δ(G1)Δ(G2) <nthen they pack,i.e., there is an embedding ofG1into the complement ofG2. We improve this by showing that if (gcol(G1)−1)Δ(G2)+(gcol(G2)−1)Δ(G1) <nthenG1andG2pack. To our knowledge this is the first application of colouring games to a non-game problem.

Generalizing Kaneko's long path packing problem, Hartvigsen, Hell and Szabó consider a new type of undirected graph packing problem, called the $k$-piece packing problem. A $k$-piece is a simple, connected graph with highest degree exactly $k$ so in the case $k=1$ we get the classical matching problem. They give a polynomial algorithm, a Tutte-type characterization and a Berge-type minimax formula for the $k$-piece packing problem. However, they leave open the question of an Edmonds-Gallai type decomposition. This paper fills this gap by describing such a decomposition. We also prove that the vertex sets coverable by $k$-piece packings have a certain matroidal structure.
