✦ Synopsis
A theorem of Kneser states that in an abelian group G; if A and B are finite subsets in G and AB ¼ fab : a 2 A; b 2 Bg; then jABj5jAj þ jBj À jHðABÞj where HðABÞ ¼ fg 2 G : gðABÞ ¼ ABg: Motivated by the study of a problem in finite fields, we prove an analogous result for vector spaces over a field E in an extension field K of E: Our proof is algebraic and it gives an immediate proof of Kneser's Theorem.

## Abstract In 1966, Chartrand proved that if the minimum degree of a graph is at least the floor of half the number of nodes, then its edge‐connectivity equals its minimum degree. A more discriminating notion of edge‐connectivity is introduced, called the __k__‐component order edge‐connectivity, w
## Abstract In this paper, we obtain an asymptotic generalization of Turán's theorem. We prove that if all the non‐trivial eigenvalues of a __d__‐regular graph __G__ on __n__ vertices are sufficiently small, then the largest __K__~__t__~‐free subgraph of __G__ contains approximately (__t__ − 2)/(__
In this paper, we give a generalization of a well-known result of Dirac that given any k vertices in a k-connected graph where k 2, there is a circuit containing all of them. We also generalize a result of Ha ggkvist and Thomassen. Our main result partially answers an open matroid question of Oxley.
