Aharoni-Berger strong conjecture for bipartite graphs
Aharoni-Berger strong conjecture for bipartite graphs
Let be matchings of size in a bipartite graph. A rainbow matching is a matching whose edges can be assigned distinct indices so that each edge belongs to .
Aharoni-Berger strong conjecture. Every collection of matchings of size in a bipartite graph admits a rainbow matching of size .
The extra edge in each matching permits a full rainbow matching and implies the preceding bipartite conjecture by adjoining a common dummy edge. The bound is best possible, while the conjecture remains open in the supplied text.
