Abstract :
He, Hou, Lih, Shao, Wang, and Zhu showed that a planar graph of girth 11 can be decomposed into a forest and a matching. Borodin, Kostochka, Sheikh, and Yu improved the bound on girth to 9. We give sufficient conditions for a planar graph with 3-cycles to be decomposable into a forest and a matching.
