Abstract: A matching of a graph is a set of edges without common end vertex. A graph is called 1-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. Recently, Biedl and Wittnebel [J. Graph Theory, 99 (2022), pp. 217--230] proved that every 1-planar graph with minimum degree 3 and n \geq 7 vertices has a matching of size at least n+12 7, which is tight for some graphs. They also provided tight lower bounds for the sizes of matchings in 1-planar graphs with minimum degree 4 or 5. In this paper, we show that any 1-planar graph with minimum degree 6 and n \geq 36 vertices has a matching of size at least 3n+4 7, and this lower bound is tight. Our result confirms a conjecture posed by Biedl and Wittnebel [J. Graph Theory, 99 (2022), pp. 217--230]. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
