β¦ Synopsis
In several papers a variety of questions have been raised concerning the existence of cycles of length Omod k in graphs. For the case k=4, we answer three of these questions by showing that a graph G contains such a cycle provided it has any of the following three properties: (1) G has minimum degree at least 2 and at most two vertices of degree 2, (2) G is not 3-colorable, and (3) G is a subdivision of a graph of order p>5 with at least 3p-5 edges.

Saito, A., Cycles of length 2 modulo 3 in graphs, Discrete Mathematics 101 (1992) 285-289. We prove that if a graph G of minimum degree at least 3 has no cycle of length 2 (mod 3), then G has an induced subgraph which is isomorphic to either K4 or Ks,s. The above result together with its relatively
## Abstract Thomassen [J Graph Theory 7 (1983), 261β271] 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 __k__β©Ύ2 if the minimum degree is at least 2
## Abstract An old conjecture of ErdΕs states that there exists an absolute constant __c__ and a set __S__ of density zero such that every graph of average degree at least __c__ contains a cycle of length in __S__. In this paper, we prove this conjecture by showing that every graph of average degre
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
