with black. Then there exists the desired Perfect Matching by applying
Theorem 1.6 to
K
.
Hence, we may assume that
W ∪ K
|C|≤n −

for every
C ∈{R, B, G}.
The rectangular hull of
X
is the smallest closed rectangular enclosing
X
.We
denote by
rect
(
X
) the boundary of the rectangular hull of
X
. We call a point in
X ∩ rect
).
Suppose that some two adjacent vertices
(
X
)a vertex on
rect
(
X
u
and
v
on
rect
(
X
) have distinct
colors. By our assumption, we have
|C ∩
(
X −{u, v}
)
|≤|C|≤n −
1
for every
C ∈{R, B, G}.
Thus, since
|X −{u, v}|
=2(
n −
1), we can apply the inductive hypothesis to
X −{u, v}
and there exists a Perfect Matching on
X −{u, v}
. By adding an
L
-
line segment
uv
on
rect
(
X
) to this matching, we can obtain the desired Perfect
Matching.
Therefore, we may assume that all the vertices on
rect
(
X
) have the same
color. Let
a
and
b
be the left and the right vertices on
rect
(
X
), respectively. We
X
sort all the points of
by their horizontal coordinate, and denote the sorted
x 1 ,x 2 ,...,x 2 n )sothat
x 1 =
a
x 2 n =
b
sequence by (
and
. Since the two end-
points
x 1 and
x 2 n have the same color, by Lemma 1.8 , there exists an even
number
p
(2
≤ p ≤
2
n −
1) such that for every
C ∈{R, B, G}
,
2
|C ∩{x 1 ,...,x p }| ≤ 2 ,
n − p
2
|C ∩{x p +1 ,...,x 2 n }| ≤
.
This implies that the vertical line passing through
x p partitions
X \{x p }
into
Left
=
{x 1 (=
a
)
,x 2 ,...,x p− 1 }
and
Right
=
{x p +1 ,...,x 2 n− 1 ,x 2 n (=
b
)
}
so that
a ∈ Left
,
b ∈ Right
,
|Left ∪{x p }|

Since
p
is even, by applying the inductive hypothesis to each of
Left ∪{x p }
and
Right
