Trees and Matchings from Point Processes

چکیده
A factor graph of a point process is a graph whose vertices are the points of the process, and which is constructed from the process in a deterministic isometry-invariant way. We prove that the d-dimensional Poisson process has a one-ended tree as a factor graph. This implies that the Poisson points can be given an ordering isomorphic to the usual ordering of the integers in a deterministic isometry-invariant way. For d ≥ 4 our result answers a question posed by Ferrari, Landim and Thorisson [7]. We prove also that any isometry-invariant ergodic point process of finite intensity in Euclidean or hyperbolic space has a perfect matching as a factor graph provided all the inter-point distances are distinct.

Packing Plane Perfect Matchings into a Point Set
Let P be a set of n points in general position in the plane (no three points on a line). A geometric graph G = (P,E) is a graph whose vertex set is P and whose edge set E is a set of straight-line segments with endpoints in P . We say that two edges of G cross each other if they have a point in common that is interior to both edges. Two edges are disjoint if they have no point in common. A subg...
متن کاملRamsey and Turán-type problems for non-crossing subgraphs of bipartite geometric graphs
Geometric versions of Ramsey-type and Turán-type problems are studied in a special but natural representation of bipartite graphs and similar questions are asked for general representations. A bipartite geometric graphG(m,n) = [A,B] is simple if the vertex classes A,B of G(m,n) are represented in R2 as A = {(1, 0), (2, 0), . . . , (m, 0)}, B = {(1, 1), (2, 1), . . . , (n, 1)} and the edge ab is...
متن کامل0 Trees and Matchings Richard
In this article, Temperley’s bijection between spanning trees of the square grid on the one hand, and perfect matchings (also known as dimer coverings) of the square grid on the other, is extended to the setting of general planar directed (and undirected) graphs, where edges carry nonnegative weights that induce a weighting on the set of spanning trees. We show that the weighted, directed spann...
متن کاملPerfect Matchings in Edge-Transitive Graphs
We find recursive formulae for the number of perfect matchings in a graph G by splitting G into subgraphs H and Q. We use these formulas to count perfect matching of P hypercube Qn. We also apply our formulas to prove that the number of perfect matching in an edge-transitive graph is , where denotes the number of perfect matchings in G, is the graph constructed from by deleting edges with an en...
متن کاملThe number of maximum matchings in a tree
We determine upper and lower bounds for the number of maximum matchings (i.e., matchings of maximum cardinality) [Formula: see text] of a tree T of given order. While the trees that attain the lower bound are easily characterised, the trees with the largest number of maximum matchings show a very subtle structure. We give a complete characterisation of these trees and derive that the number of ...
