The hamiltonian path graph H(F) of a graph F is that graph having the same vertex set as F and in which two vertices u and u are adjacent if and only if F contains a hamiltonian u -u path. First, in response to a conjecture of Chartrand, Kapoor and Nordhaus, a characterization of nonhamiltonian grap

Abstract
The eulericity Ο΅(G) of a bridgeless graph G is defined as the least number of eulerian subgraphs of G which together cover the lines of G. A 1β1 correspondence is shown to exist between the kβtuples of eulerian subgraphs of G and the proper flows (mod2^k^) on a given network based on G. The inequality Ο΅(G) β©½ 3 them follows from a result of Jaeger.

## Abstract This paper presents some recent results on lower bounds for independence ratios of graphs of positive genus and shows that in a limiting sense these graphs have the same independence ratios as do planar graphs. This last result is obtained by an application of Menger's Theorem to show t
## dedicated to professor w. t. tutte on the occasion of his eightieth birtday It is known that the chromatic number of a graph G=(V, E) with V= [1, 2, ..., n] exceeds k iff the graph polynomial f G => ij # E, i<j (x i &x j ) lies in certain ideals. We describe a short proof of this result, using
We provide upper estimates on the spectral radius of a directed graph. In particular w e prove that the spectral radius is bounded by the maximum of the geometric mean of in-degree and out-degree taken over all vertices.
