It will be shown that any two triangulations on a closed surface, except the sphere, with minimum degree at least 4 can be transformed into each other by a finite sequence of diagonal flips through those triangulations if they have a sufficiently large and same number of vertices. The same fact hold

β¦ Synopsis
A triangulation is said to be even if each vertex has even degree. For even triangulations, define the N-flip and the P 2 -flip as two deformations preserving the number of vertices. We shall prove that any two even triangulations on the sphere with the same number of vertices can be transformed into each other by a sequence of N-and P 2 -flips.

## Abstract Let us call a finite subset __X__ of a Euclidean __m__βspace E^m^ __Ramsey__ if for any positive integer __r__ there is an integer __n__ = __n__(__X;r__) such that in any partition of E^n^ into __r__ classes __C__~1~,β¦, __C~r~__, some __C~i~__ contains a set __X__' which is the image of
It is proved that if a planar triangulation different from K3 and K4 contains a Hamiltonian cycle, then it contains at least four of them. Together with the result of Hakimi, Schmeichel, and Thomassen [21, this yields that, for n 2 12, the minimum number of Hamiltonian cycles in a Hamiltonian planar
