We show that the edges of a 2-connected graph can be partitioned into two color classes so that every vertex is incident with edges of each color and every alternating cycle passes through a single edge. We also show that the edges of a simple graph with minimum vertex degree 6 2 2 can be partitione

We prove that if the edges of the complete graph on n ~4 vertices are colored so that no vertex is on more than A edges of the same color, 1 c A < n -2,, then the graph has cycles of all lengths 3 through n with no A consecutive edges the same color.
## Abstract Sufficient degree conditions for the existence of properly edgeβcolored cycles and paths in edgeβcolored graphs, multigraphs and random graphs are investigated. In particular, we prove that an edgeβcolored multigraph of order __n__ on at least three colors and with minimum colored degre
It is shown that, for β ) 0 and n ) n β , any complete graph K on n vertices 0 ' Ε½ . whose edges are colored so that no vertex is incident with more than 1 y 1r 2 y β n edges of the same color contains a Hamilton cycle in which adjacent edges have distinct colors. Moreover, for every k between 3 and
