Rainbow spanning configurations in uniformly coloured pseudorandom graphs

Abstract

We prove a quantitative palette-transference principle for rainbow spanning configurations in uniformly edge-coloured pseudorandom graphs. The input to our transference principle is an embedding result of a spanning configuration in an appropriately bijumbled graph $H$ with sufficiently large minimum degree. The output of our transference principle is the asymptotically almost sure existence of a rainbow copy of the same configuration in a uniformly edge-coloured graph $G$ whose bijumbledness and minimum are comparable and sometimes coincide with those of $H$. We then apply our transference principle in order to asymptotically almost surely obtain $K_k$-factors, including perfect matchings, Hamilton cycles, and a prescribed bounded-degree spanning tree in bijumbled graphs with appropriate parameters. In all of our results, the palette size exceeds the size of the target configuration by $\varepsilon n$, where $\varepsilon > 0$ is arbitrarily small yet fixed, and $n$ is the order of the configuration.
