Abstract
Moon and Moser (Israel J. Math. 1 (1962) 163–165) showed that if G is a balanced bipartite graph of order 2 n and minimum degree σ ⩾ ( n + 1)/2, then G is hamiltonian. Recently, it was shown that their well-known degree condition also implies the existence of a 2-factor with exactly k cycles provided n ⩾ max {52, 2 k 2 + 1}. In this paper, we show that a similar degree condition implies that for each perfect matching M, there exists a 2-factor with exactly k cycles including all edges of M.
