## Abstract Kotzig asked in 1979 what are necessary and sufficient conditions for a __d__βregular simple graph to admit a decomposition into paths of length __d__ for odd __d__>3. For cubic graphs, the existence of a 1βfactor is both necessary and sufficient. Even more, each 1βfactor is extendable
Let G be a 2-connected graph, let u and v be distinct vertices in V (G), and let X be a set of at most four vertices lying on a common (u
## Abstract It is proved that for every positive integers __k__, __r__ and __s__ there exists an integer __n__β=β__n__(__k__,__r__,__s__) such that every __k__βconnected graph of order at least __n__ contains either an induced path of length __s__ or a subdivision of the complete bipartite graph __
In this paper it is shown that any rn-regular graph of order 2rn (rn 3 3), not isomorphic to K, , , , or of order 2rn + 1 (rn even, rn 3 4), is Hamiltonian connected, which extends a previous result of Nash-Williams. As a corollary, it is derived that any such graph contains at least rn Hamiltonian
Let G be a k-regular 2-connected graph of order n. Jackson proved that G is hamiltonian if n 5 3k. Zhu and Li showed that the upper bound 3k on n can be relaxed to q k if G is 3-connected and k 2 63. We improve both results by showing that G is hamiltonian if n 5 gk -7 and G does not belong to a res
