Select four perfect matchings of 2n vertices, independently at random. We find the asymptotic probability that each of the first and second matchings forms a Hamilton cycle with each of the third and fourth. This is generalised to embrace any fixed number of perfect matchings, where a prescribed set
We look at the minimal size of a maximal matching in general, bipartite and d-regular random graphs. We prove that with high probability the ratio between the sizes of any two maximal matchings approaches one in dense random graphs and random bipartite graphs. Weaker bounds hold for sparse random gr
