A bisection of a graph is a partition of its vertex set into two parts whose sizes differ by at most one. We prove that every graph with $m$ edges and maximum degree at most $k$ has a bisection of size at least $\frac{k+1}{2k}m$ when $k$ is odd, and at least $\frac{k+2}{2(k+1)}m$ when $k$ is even. Both bounds are sharp...
For integers $1\le k\le n/2$, let $f(k,n)$ be the least integer $s$ such that every $s$-connected graph on $n$ vertices contains a spanning bipartite $k$-connected subgraph. Thomassen conjectured that $f(k,n)$ is bounded by a function of $k$ alone. Delcourt and Ferber proved $f(k,n)=O(k^3\log n)$, and Yuster subsequent...
Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph and let $\ell:V(G)\to\mathbb{F}_2$ prescribe degree parities. A set $S\subseteq V(G)$ is $\ell$-admissible if every $v\in S$ has degree congruent to $\ell(v)$ modulo $2$ in $G[S]$. Let $h_\ell(G)$ be the maximum order of an $\ell$-admissible set, set $f_{\mathrm{oe}}(G):=\min_\ell h_\ell(...
