A well-known conjecture of Thomassen says that every 4-connected line graph is hamiltonian. In this paper we prove that every 7-connected line graph is hamiltonian-connected. For line graph, C. Thomassen [l] made the following conjecture. Conjecture. Every 4-connected line graph is hamiltonian.

## Abstract In this paper, we show that if __G__ is a 3βedgeβconnected 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
## Abstract One of the most fundamental results concerning paths in graphs is due to Ore: In a graph __G__, if deg __x__ + deg __y__ β§ |__V__(__G__)| + 1 for all pairs of nonadjacent vertices __x, y__ β __V__(__G__), then __G__ is hamiltonianβconnected. We generalize this result using set degrees.
A graph is k-triangular if each edge is in at least k triangles. Triangular is a synonym for l-triangular. It is shown that the line graph of a triangular graph of order at least 4 is panconnected if and only if it is 3-connected. Furthermore, the line graph of a k-triangular graph is k-harniltonian
