Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

In a bipartite graph representing 5 jobs and 3 employees, demonstrate potential matchings and assess if a complete matching can be achieved.

💡 Hint: Sketch the graph to visualize options.

Challenge 2 Hard

Apply Hall's theorem to a bipartite graph with specific subsets and determine if a complete matching is feasible. Justify your conclusion.

💡 Hint: Count neighbors carefully against subset sizes.
