Abstract
A weighted graph is one in which every edge e is assigned a nonnegative number, called the weight of e. The sum of the weights of the edges incident with a vertex Ο is called the weighted degree of Ο . The weight of a cycle is defined as the sum of the weights of its edges. In this paper, we prove that: (1) if G is a 2βconnected weighted graph such that the minimum weighted degree of G is at least d, then for every given vertices x and y, either G contains a cycle of weight at least 2__d__ passing through both of x and y or every heaviest cycle in G is a hamiltonian cycle, and (2) if G is a 2βconnected weighted graph such that the weighted degree sum of every pair of nonadjacent vertices is at least s, then for every vertex y, G contains either a cycle of weight at least s passing through y or a hamiltonian cycle.

## For a graph G and an integer an independent set of vertices in G}. Enomoto proved the following theorem. Let s β₯ 1 and let G be a (s + 2)-connected graph. Then G has a cycle of length β₯ min{|V (G)|, Ο 2 (G) -s} passing through any path of length s. We generalize this result as follows. Let k β₯
We prove the following theorem: For a connected noncomplete graph Then through each edge of G there passes a cycle of length β₯ min{|V (G)|, Ο(G) -1}.
