چکیده

In this paper, we show that if G is a 3-edge-connected graph with S V ðGÞ and jSj 12, then eitherG has an Eulerian subgraphH such that S V ðHÞ, or G can be contracted to the Petersen graph in such a way that the preimage of each vertex of the Petersen graph contains at least one vertex in S. If G is a 3-edge-connected planar graph, then for any jSj 23, G has an Eulerian subgraph H such that S V ðHÞ. As an application, we obtain a new result on Hamiltonian line graphs. 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 42: 308–319, 2003

Distinct edge geodetic decomposition in graphs

Let G=(V,E) be a simple connected graph of order p and size q. A decomposition of a graph G is a collection π of edge-disjoint subgraphs G_1,G_2,…,G_n of G such that every edge of G belongs to exactly one G_i,(1≤i ≤n). The decomposition 〖π={G〗_1,G_2,…,G_n} of a connected graph G is said to be a distinct edge geodetic decomposition if g_1 (G_i )≠g_1 (G_j ),(1≤i≠j≤n). The maximum cardinality of π...

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...

Supereulerian graphs with small circumference and 3-connected hamiltonian claw-free graphs

A graph G is supereulerian if it has a spanning eulerian subgraph. We prove that every 3-edge-connected graph with the circumference at most 11 has a spanning eulerian subgraph if and only if it is not contractible to the Petersen graph. As applications, we determine collections F1, F2 and F3 of graphs to prove each of the following (i) Every 3-connected {K1,3, Z9}-free graph is hamiltonian if ...
