For any graph \(G\) embedded on the torus, the face-width \(r(G)\) of \(G\) is the minimum number of intersections of \(G\) and \(C\), where \(C\) ranges over all nonnullhomotopic closed curves on the torus. We call \(G r\)-minimal if \(r(G) \geqslant r\) and \(r\left(G^{\prime}\right)<r\) for each
## Contractible transformations of graphs consist of contractible gluing and deleting of vertices and edges of graphs. They partition all graphs into the family of homotopy classes. Contractible transformations do not change the Euler characteristic and the homology groups of graphs. In this paper
## Abstract Let __m__ and __n__ be nonnegative integers. Denote by __P__(__m,n__) the set of all triangleβfree graphs __G__ such that for any independent __m__βsubset __M__ and any __n__βsubset __N__ of __V__(__G__) with __M__ β© __N__ = Γ, there exists a unique vertex of __G__ that is adjacent to e
We show that every graph G on n vertices with minimal degree at least n / k contains a cycle of length at least [ n / ( k -111. This verifies a conjecture of Katchalski. When k = 2 our result reduces t o the classical theorem of Dirac that asserts that if all degrees are at least i n then G is Hamil
