چکیده

We prove that every 3-connected 2-indivisible infinite planar graph has a 1-way infinite 2-walk. (A graph is 2-indivisible if deleting finitely many vertices leaves at most one infinite component, and a 2-walk is a spanning walk using every vertex at most twice.) This improves a result of Timar, which assumed local finiteness. Our proofs use Tutte subgraphs, and allow us to also provide other results when the graph is bipartite or an infinite analog of a triangulation: then the prism over the graph has a spanning 1-way infinite path.

Infinite paths in planar graphs I: Graphs with radial nets

Let G be an infinite 4-connected planar graph such that the deletion of any finite set of vertices from G results in exactly one infinite component. Dean et al proved that either G admits a radial net or a special subgraph of G admits a ladder net, and they used these nets to show that G contains a spanning 1-way infinite path. In this paper, we show that if G admits a radial net, then G also c...

Infinite paths in planar graphs II, structures and ladder nets

A graph is k-indivisible, where k is a positive integer, if the deletion of any finite set of vertices results in at most k − 1 infinite components. In 1971, NashWilliams conjectured that a 4-connected infinite planar graph contains a spanning 2-way infinite path if, and only if, it is 3-indivisible. In this paper, we prove a structural result for 2-indivisible infinite planar graphs. This stru...

Discrete Random Walks on One-Sided "Periodic" Graphs

In this paper we consider discrete random walks on infinite graphs that are generated by copying and shifting one finite (strongly connected) graph into one direction and connecting successive copies always in the same way. With help of generating functions it is shown that there are only three types for the asymptotic behaviour of the random walk. It either converges to the stationary distribu...

Infinite paths in planar graphs III, 1-way infinite paths

An infinite graph is 2-indivisible if the deletion of any finite set of vertices from the graph results in exactly one infinite component. Let G be a 4-connected, 2indivisible, infinite, plane graph. It is known that G contains a spanning 1-way infinite path. In this paper, we prove a stronger result by showing that, for any vertex x and any edge e on a facial cycle of G, there is a spanning 1-...
