Abstract
Given $r\in \mathbb{N}$ with $r\geq 4$, we show that there exists $n_0\in \mathbb{N}$ such that for every $n\geq n_0$, every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with $\delta(G)\geq (\frac{1}{2}+o(1))n$ and $\alpha_{r-2}(G)=o(n)$ contains a $K_{r}$-factor. This resolves the first open case of a question proposed by Nenadov and Pehova, and reiterated by Knierm and Su. We further introduce two lower bound constructions that, along with some known results, fully resolve a question presented by Balogh, Molla, and Sharifzadeh.
