An emhdding
of graph G into graph N is by definition an isomorphism OI G onto a subgraph of H. It is shown in this paper that every unicycle V embeds in its line-graph L(V), and that every other connected graph that embeds in its own line-graph may be constructed from such an embedded unicycle in a natural way. A complete, explicit classification is also given of the graphs G that admit a special kind of embedding into L(G), called an incidence embedding. Moreover, the question of which graphs G are isomorphic to induced subgraphs 6' of their line -graphs is shown to be formally equivalent to the original, more general question, where G' is not required to be induced.

## Abstract A graph has the neighborโclosedโcoโneighbor, or ncc property, if for each of its vertices __x__, the subgraph induced by the neighbor set of __x__ is isomorphic to the subgraph induced by the closed nonโneighbor set of __x__. As proved by Bonato and Nowakowski [5], graphs with the ncc p
Beineke and Robertson independently characterized line graphs in terms of nine forbidden induced subgraphs. In 1994, S8 olte s gave another characterization, which reduces the number of forbidden induced subgraphs to seven, with only five exceptional cases. A graph is said to be a dumbbell if it con

## Abstract In this paper, we show that if __G__ is a 3โedgeโconnected graph with $S \subseteq V(G)$ and $|S| \le 12$, then either __G__ has an Eulerian subgraph __H__ such that $S \subseteq V(H)$, or __G__ can be contracted to the Petersen graph in such a way that the preimage of each vertex of th
