## Abstract Let __G__ = (__X, Y, E__) be a bipartite graph with __X__ = __Y__ = __n__. Chvรกtal gave a condition on the vertex degrees of __X__ and __Y__ which implies that __G__ contains a Hamiltonian cycle. It is proved here that this condition also implies that __G__ contains cycles of every even

Abstract
Thomassen [J Graph Theory 7 (1983), 261โ271] conjectured that for all positive integers k and m, every graph of minimum degree at least k+1 contains a cycle of length congruent to 2__m__ modulo k. We prove that this is true for kโฉพ2 if the minimum degree is at least 2__k__โ1, which improves the previously known bound of 3__k__โ2. We also show that Thomassen's conjecture is true for m = 2. ยฉ 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 65: 246โ252, 2010

A Halin graph is a plane graph H = T U C, where T is a plane tree with no vertex of degree t w o and at least one vertex of degree three or more, and C is a cycle connecting the endvertices of T in the cyclic order determined by the embedding of T We prove that such a graph on n vertices contains cy
## Abstract A cycle in an edgeโcolored graph is said to be rainbow if no two of its edges have the same color. For a complete, infinite, edgeโcolored graph __G__, define Then ๐(__G__) is a monoid with respect to the operation __n__โ__m__=__n__+ __m__โ2, and thus there is a least positive integer ฯ
It is easy to see that planar graphs without 3-cycles are 3-degenerate. Recently, it was proved that planar graphs without 5-cycles are also 3-degenerate. In this paper it is shown, more surprisingly, that the same holds for planar graphs without 6-cycles.
