## Abstract We show that every __k__βconnected graph with no 3βcycle contains an edge whose contraction results in a __k__βconnected graph and use this to prove that every (__k__ + 3)βconnected graph contains a cycle whose deletion results in a __k__βconnected graph. This settles a problem of L. Lo
## Abstract For a graph __G__, a subset __S__ of __V__(__G__) is called a shredder if __G__βββ__S__ consists of three or more components. We show that if __k__ β₯ 4 and __G__ is a __k__βconnected graph, then the number of shredders of cardinality __k__ of __G__ is less than 2|__V__(__G__)|/3 (we sho
Let G be a connected graph, where k 2. S. Smith conjectured that every two longest cycles of G have at least k vertices in common. In this note, we show that every two longest cycles meet in at least ck 3Γ5 vertices, where cr0.2615. ## 1998 Academic Press In this note, we provide a lower bound on
## Abstract A result of G. Chartrand, A. Kaugars, and D. R. Lick [Proc Amer Math Soc 32 (1972), 63β68] says that every finite, kβconnected graph __G__ of minimum degree at least β3__k__/2β contains a vertex __x__ such that __G__β__x__ is still __k__βconnected. We generalize this result by proving t
