## Abstract We characterize all pairs of connected graphs {__X__, __Y__} such that each 3βconnected {__X__, __Y__}βfree graph is pancyclic. In particular, we show that if each of the graphs in such a pair {__X__, __Y__} has at least four vertices, then one of them is the claw __K__~1,3~, while the

Various Hamiltonian-like properties are investigated in the squares of connected graphs free of some set of forbidden subgraphs. The star K,+ the subdivision graph of &, and the subdivision graph of K1,3 minus an endvertex play central roles. In particular, we show that connected graphs free of the
## Abstract Let __K__~1,__n__~ denote the star on __n__β+β1 vertices; that is, __K__~1,__n__~ is the complete bipartite graph having one vertex in the first vertex class of its bipartition and __n__ in the second. The special graph __K__~1,3~, called the __claw__, has received much attention in the
For each pair k, rn of natural numbers there exists a natural number f(k, rn) such that every f ( k , m)-chromatic graph contains a k-connected subgraph of chromatic number at least rn.
Let G be a plane bipartite graph which admits a perfect matching and with distinguished faces called holes. Let MG denote the perfect matchings graph: its vertices are the perfect matchings of G, two of them being joined by an edge, if and only if they di er only on an alternating cycle bounding a f
