Abstract

We characterize the structural impediments to the existence of Borel perfect matchings for acyclic locally countable Borel graphs admitting a Borel selection of finitely many ends from their connected components. In particular, this yields the existence of Borel matchings for such graphs of degree at least three. As a corollary, it follows that acyclic locally countable Borel graphs of degree at least three generating μ-hyperfinite equivalence relations admit μ-measurable matchings. We establish the analogous result for Baire measurable matchings in the locally finite case, and provide a counterexample in the locally countable case.
