Counting perfect matchings is an interesting and challenging combinatorial task. It has important applications in statistical physics and chemistry. As the general problem is #P-complete, it is usually tackled by randomized heuristics and approximation schemes. Let GG and HH be two graphs. Denote by G×HG\times H the Cartesian product of graphs GG and HH. The number of perfect matchings of some types of Cartesian product G×HG\times H is investigated by the Pfaffian method, where G≅P2G\cong {P}_{2}, P3{P}_{3}, P4{P}_{4} or C4{C}_{4}, and H≅TH\cong T or HH is a non-bipartite graph with a unique cycle. In this article, we construct a Pfaffian orientation of the graph G×P2G\times {P}_{2}, where GG is a non-bipartite graph with kk odd cycles. We obtain the counting formula on the number of perfect matchings of G×P2G\times {P}_{2}. |
