✦ Synopsis


A proof is given of the result about binary matroids that implies that a connected graph is Eulerian if and only if every edge lies in an odd number of circuits, and a graph is bipartite if and only if every edge lies in an odd number of cocircuits (minimal cutsets). A proof is also given of the result that the edge set of every graph can be expressed as a disjoint union of circuits and cocircuits. No matroid theory is assumed.

It was conjectured in [Wang, to appear in The Australasian Journal of Combinatorics] that, for each integer k β‰₯ 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 β‰₯ 3k, i.e., M (k) ≀ 3k. W

## Abstract In this paper we present a relatively simple proof of Tutt's characterization of graphic matroids. The proof uses the notion of β€˜signed graph’ and it is β€˜graphic’ in the sense that it can be presented almost entirely by drawing (signed) graphs. Β© 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
