By a theorem of the toughness t(G) of a non-hamiitonian maximal planar graph G is less than or equal to 2. Improving a result of , it is shown that the shortness exponent of the class of maximal planar graphs with toughness greater than or equal to ~ is less than 1.

A graph is called weakly pancyclic if it contains cycles of all lengths between its girth and circumference. In answer to a question of ErdΕs, we show that a Hamiltonian weakly-pancyclic graph of order n can have girth as large as about 2 n/ log n. In contrast to this, we show that the existence of
We construct a graph of girth 6 that cannot be oriented as the diagram of an ordered set and discuss the reasons why this particular construction cannot be extended to produce examples of larger girth. The problem of characterizing graphs that can be oriented as diagrams of ordered sets (or coverin
Let B(n, g) be the set of bicyclic graphs on n vertices with girth g. In this paper, we determine the unique graph with the maximal spectral radius among all graphs in B(n, g). Moreover, the maximal spectral radius is a decreasing function on g.
