A Median-Type Condition for Graph Tiling

Komlos [Tiling Turan theorems, Combinatorica, 20,2 (2000), 203{218] determined the asymptotically optimal minimum degree condition for covering a given proportion of vertices of a host graph by vertex-disjoint copies of a fixed graph. We show that the minimum degree condition can be relaxed in the sense that we require only a given fraction of vertices to have the prescribed degree.
