✦ Synopsis


A graph H is a cover of a graph G, if there exists a mapping ϕ from V (H) onto V (G) such that for every vertex v of G, ϕ maps the neighbors of v in H bijectively onto the neighbors of ϕ(v) in G. Negami conjectured in 1987 that a connected graph has a finite planar cover if and only if it embeds in the projective plane. This conjecture is not completely solved yet, but partial results due to Archdeacon, Fellows, Negami, and the author are known. This article suggests another formulation of this conjecture that has a straightforward generalization to higher nonorientable surfaces, and provides some support for the generalized version.

This article is motivated by a conjecture of Thomassen and Toft on the number s 2 (G) of separating vertex sets of cardinality 2 and the number v 2 (G) of vertices of degree 2 in a graph G belonging to the class G of all 2-connected graphs without nonseparating induced cycles.

It was conjectured in [Wang, to appear in The Australasian Journal of Combinatorics] that, for each integer k ≥ 2, there exists . This conjecture is also verified for k = 2, 3 in [Wang, to appear; Wang, manuscript]. In this article, we prove this conjecture to be true if n ≥ 3k, i.e., M (k) ≤ 3k. W
