چکیده

The Caccetta-Häggkvist conjecture would determine the minimum outdegree which forces a cycle of length at most k in an oriented graph. We study the related question of which minimum outand indegree forces a cycle of length exactly k in an oriented graph. We answer this question whenever k is not a multiple of 3 and propose a conjecture for the other cases.

On list vertex 2-arboricity of toroidal graphs without cycles of specific length

The vertex arboricity $rho(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of subsets into which the vertex set $V(G)$ can be partitioned so that each subset induces an acyclic graph‎. ‎A graph $G$ is called list vertex $k$-arborable if for any set $L(v)$ of cardinality at least $k$ at each vertex $v$ of $G$‎, ‎one can choose a color for each $v$ from its list $L(v)$ so that the subgraph induced by ev...

Unit-length embedding of cycles and paths on grid graphs

Although there are very algorithms for embedding graphs on unbounded grids, only few results on embedding or drawing graphs on restricted grids has been published. In this work, we consider the problem of embedding paths and cycles on grid graphs. We give the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of cycles of given length k and paths of given length k between two given vertices ...

Embedding cycles of given length in oriented graphs

Kelly, Kühn and Osthus conjectured that for any ` ≥ 4 and the smallest number k ≥ 3 that does not divide `, any large enough oriented graph G with δ(G), δ−(G) ≥ b|V (G)|/kc+1 contains a directed cycle of length `. We prove this conjecture asymptotically for the case when ` is large enough compared to k and k ≥ 7. The case when k ≤ 6 was already settled asymptotically by Kelly, Kühn and Osthus.

0n removable cycles in graphs and digraphs

In this paper we define the removable cycle that, if $Im$ is a class of graphs, $Gin Im$, the cycle $C$ in $G$ is called removable if $G-E(C)in Im$. The removable cycles in Eulerian graphs have been studied. We characterize Eulerian graphs which contain two edge-disjoint removable cycles, and the necessary and sufficient conditions for Eulerian graph to have removable cycles h...

Vertex Removable Cycles of Graphs and Digraphs

‎In this paper we defined the vertex removable cycle in respect of the following‎, ‎if $F$ is a class of graphs(digraphs)‎ ‎satisfying certain property‎, ‎$G in F $‎, ‎the cycle $C$ in $G$ is called vertex removable if $G-V(C)in in F $.‎ ‎The vertex removable cycles of eulerian graphs are studied‎. ‎We also characterize the edge removable cycles of regular‎ ‎graphs(digraphs).‎
