Zhou et al. obtains a toughness condition for a graph to be fractional(k, m)-deleted and presents an example to show the sharpness of the toughness bound. In this paper, we remark that the previous example does not work and inspired by this fact, we present a new toughness condition for fractional(k, m)-deleted graphs improving the existing one.

Graph G is called a k-deleted graph if G-e has a k-factor for each edge e. A graph G=(X,Y) with bipartition (X,Y) is called a bipartite graph if every edge of G has one endpoint in X and the other in Y.It is proved that a bipartite graph G=(X,Y) with X=Y is a k-deleted graph if and only if kS≤r 1+2r 2+...+k(r k+...+r Δ)-ε(S) for all SX. Using this result we give a sufficient neighborhood condition for a bipartite to be a k-deleted graph.展开更多
