Let f (n) be the minimum number of cycles present in a 3-connected cubic graph on n vertices. In 1986, C. A. Barefoot, L. Clark, and R. Entringer (Congr. Numer. 53, 1986) showed that f (n) is subexponential and conjectured that f (n) is superpolynomial. We verify this by showing that, for n sufficie

## Abstract In this article, we prove the following theorem. Let __k__ββ₯β3 be an integer, __G__ be a __k__βconnected graph with minimum degree __d__ and __X__ be a set of __k__β+β1 vertices on a cycle. Then __G__ has a cycle of length at least min {2d,|V(G)|} passing through __X__. This result give
Moon and Moser in 1963 conjectured that if G is a 3-connected planar graph on n vertices, then G contains a cycle of length at least OΓ°n log 3 2 Γ: In this paper, this conjecture is proved. In addition, the same result is proved for 3-connected graphs embeddable in the projective plane, or the torus
## Abstract It has been proved [1,2] that in a cubic 3βconnected graph any 9 vertices lie on a common cycle.

We show that if G is a 3-connected graph of order at least seven, then every longest path between distinct vertices in G contains at least two contractible edges. An immediate corollary is that longest cycles in such graphs contain at least three contractible edges. We consider only finite undirect
