Abstract

The hamiltonian index of a graph G is the smallest integer k such that the k‐th iterated line graph of G is hamiltonian. We first show that, with one exceptional case, adding an edge to a graph cannot increase its hamiltonian index. We use this result to prove that neither the contraction of an A~G~(F)‐contractible subgraph F of a graph G nor the closure operation performed on G (if G is claw‐free) affects the value of the hamiltonian index of a graph G.

We show that, in a claw-free graph, Hamilton-connectedness is preserved under the operation of local completion performed at a vertex with 2-connected neighborhood. This result proves a conjecture by Bollobás et al.

## Abstract New considerations of the stability problem of dewetting, as addressed in the initial paper [Cryst. Res. Technol. **39**, 491 (2004)], show that, in the most general case, when dewetting occurs in microgravity it is necessarily stable. This explains why the phenomenon has been observed
