✦ Synopsis

We prove a theorem on paths with prescribed ends in a planar graph which extends Tutte's theorem on cycles in planar graphs [9] and implies the conjecture of Plummer (51 asserting that every 4-connected planar graph is Hamiltonian-connected.

This paper generalizes a theorem of Thomassen on paths in planar graphs. As a corollary, it is shown that every 4-connected planar graph has a Hamilton path between any two specified vertices x, y and containing any specified edge other than xy.

An infinite graph is 2-indivisible if the deletion of any finite set of vertices from the graph results in exactly one infinite component. Let G be a 4-connected, 2-indivisible, infinite, plane graph. It is known that G contains a spanning 1-way infinite path. In this paper, we prove a stronger resu

## Abstract Let __G__ be an infinite 4‐connected planar graph such that the deletion of any finite set of vertices from __G__ results in exactly one infinite component. Dean __et al__. proved that either __G__ admits a radial net or a special subgraph of __G__ admits a ladder net, and they used the

Nash-Williams conjectured that a 4-connected infinite planar graph contains a spanning 2-way infinite path if, and only if, the deletion of any finite set of vertices results in at most two infinite components. In this article, we prove this conjecture for graphs with no dividing cycles and for grap
