✦ Synopsis


A graph is k-triangular if each edge is in at least k triangles. Triangular is a synonym for l-triangular. It is shown that the line graph of a triangular graph of order at least 4 is panconnected if and only if it is 3-connected. Furthermore, the line graph of a k-triangular graph is k-harniltonian if and only if it is ( k + 2)-connected ( k L 1). These results generalize work of Clark and Wormald and of Lesniak-Foster. Related results are due to Oberly and Sumner and to Kanetkar and Rao.

1. PRELIMINARIES

We use [ l ] for basic terminology and notation, and consider simple graphs only. Let'G be a graph. We will often identify a trail in G with the subgraph induced by its edges. Hence a subgraph T of G is a trail if and only if T is connected and at most two vertices of T have odd degree in T . An edge e of G is dominated by the trail T if e is incident with at least one vertex of T; E ( T ) denotes the set of edges of G dominated by T and we write b(T) for (E(T)I. A dominuting trail or D-trail of G is a trail that dominates all edges of G , while a spanning trail or S-trail contains all vertices of G . A circuit is a nontrivial

## Abstract In this paper, we show that if __G__ is a 3‐edge‐connected graph with $S \subseteq V(G)$ and $|S| \le 12$, then either __G__ has an Eulerian subgraph __H__ such that $S \subseteq V(H)$, or __G__ can be contracted to the Petersen graph in such a way that the preimage of each vertex of th

## Abstract We show that every 3‐connected claw‐free graph which contains no induced copy of __P__~11~ is hamiltonian. Since there exist non‐hamiltonian 3‐connected claw‐free graphs without induced copies of __P__~12~ this result is, in a way, best possible. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph T

## Abstract An edge of a 3‐connected graph is said to be __contractible__ if its contraction results in a 3‐connected graph. In this paper, a covering of contractible edges is studied. We give an alternative proof to the result of Ota and Saito (__Scientia__ (A) 2 (1988) 101–105) that the set of co
