Exact random covers of metric trees: balanced rounding, duality, and sharp thresholds
Qi Wu, Yong Lu
Norin and Turcotte's asymptotically sharp bound for graph burning [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 168 (2024), 208--235] led them to an exact random-cover conjecture for finite metric tre…

A Proof of the Chen--Raspaud Conjecture
Qi Wu, Yong Lu
For every integer , Chen and Raspaud conjectured that each graph with odd girth $\og(G)\ge2k+1$ and maximum average degree $\mad(G)<2+1/k$ has a -coloring. In…

Some sufficient conditions for a graph with minimum degree to be -critical with respect to -odd factors
Jiaxu Zhong, Yong Lu
A graph is -factor-critical if has a perfect matching for every subset with . A spanning subgraph of is called a -odd factor i…

Improved bounds on the -rank of a mixed graph in terms of the matching number and fractional matching number
Qi Wu, Yong Lu
A mixed graph is obtained by orienting some edges of a graph , where is the underlying graph of . Let be the -rank of $\…
