A graph G has the repeated degree property if there is an integer n such that for each graph H with at least n vertices, either H or its complement contains a copy of G in which two vertices have the same degree in H. The minimum such number n is the repeated degree number of G. We extend work of Ch

Abstract
We characterize graphs H with the following property: Let G be a graph and F be a subgraph of G such that (i) each component of F is isomorphic to H or K~2~, (ii) the order of F is maximum, and (iii) the number of H‐components in F is minimum subject to (ii). Then a maximum matching of F is also a maximum matching of G. This result is motivated by an analogous property of fractional matchings discovered independently by J. P. Uhry and E. Balas.
