A cycle in a graph is dominating if every vertex lies at distance at most one from the cycle and a cycle is D-cycle if every edge is incident with a vertex of the cycle. In this paper, first we provide recursive formulae for finding a shortest dominating cycle in a Hahn graph; minor modifications ca

β¦ Synopsis
Flandrin et ai. (to appear) define a simple bipartite graph to be biclaw-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to H, where H could be obtained from two copies of K1.3 by adding an edge joining the two vertices of degree 3. They have shown that if G is a bipartite, balanced, biclaw-free connected graph of order at most 66-10, then G is hamiltonian. In this paper we show that if G is a bipartite, balanced, biclaw-free connected graph of order at most 86-69, where 6 >1 24, then every longest cycle in G is dominating, i.e., every edge has at least one end-vertex on the cycle.

In this paper we obtain two sufficient conditions, Ore type (Theorem 1) and Dirac type (Theorem 2). on the degrees of a bipartite oriented graph for ensuring the existence of long paths and cycles. These conditions are shown to be the best possible in a sense. An oriented graph is a digraph without
P Γ³sa proved that if G is an n-vertex graph in which any two nonadjacent vertices have degree-sum at least n+k, then G has a spanning cycle containing any specified family of disjoint paths with a total of k edges. We consider the analogous problem for a bipartite graph G with n vertices and parts o
