Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A bipartite graph is called bipancyclic if it contains cycles of every even length from four up to the number of vertices in the graph. A theorem of Schmeichel and Mitchem states that for $n \geqslant 4$, every balanced bipartite graph on $2n$ vertices in which each vertex in one color class has degree greater than $\frac{n}{2}$ and each vertex in the other color class has degree at least $\frac{n}{2}$ is bipancyclic. We prove a generalization of this theorem in the setting of graph transversals. Namely, we show that given a family $\mathcal{G}$ of $2n$ bipartite graphs on a common set $X$ of $2n$ vertices with a common balanced bipartition, if each graph of $\mathcal G$ has minimum degree greater than $\frac{n}{2}$ in one color class and minimum degree at least $\frac{n}{2}$ in the other color class, then there exists a cycle on $X$ of each even length $4 \leqslant \ell \leqslant 2n$ that uses at most one edge from each graph of $\mathcal G$. We also show that given a family $\mathcal G$ of $n$ bipartite graphs on a common set $X$ of $2n$ vertices meeting the same degree conditions, there exists a perfect matching on $X$ that uses exactly one edge from each graph of $\mathcal G$.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
