The existence of even factors based on the -spectral radius of graphs

arXiv:2512.16932

Abstract

An even factor of is a spanning subgraph such that every vertex in has a nonzero even degree. Note that is a trivial necessary condition for a graph to have an even factor, where is the minimum degree of . In this paper, for a connected graph with minimum degree , we establish a lower bound on the -spectral radius of such that contains an even factor.
