For every positive integer c , we construct a pair G, , H, of infinite, nonisomorphic graphs both having exactly c components such that G, and H, are hypomorphic, i.e., G, and H, have the same families of vertex-deleted subgraphs. This solves a problem of Bondy and Hemminger. Furthermore, the pair G

Abstract
A graph G is called strongly p‐reconstructible if it is (up to isomorphism) uniquely determined by the collection of its pairwise nonisomorphic subgraphs G – v where v is a pendent vertex of G. Using previous results of the second author concerning the structure of infinite rayless graphs it is shown that every rayless forest with an infinite edge‐set is strongly p‐reconstructible. This result is applied to the classical reconstruction problem to find that every infinite rayless forest G with a finite number of components is reconstructible; i.e., G is (up to isomorphism) uniquely determined by its collection of vertex‐deleted subgraphs. Furthermore, an example is given which shows that nonreconstructible rayless forests with a countable number of components exist.

We prove that the degree sequence of an infinite graph is reconstructibjle from its family of vertex-deleted subgraphs. Furthermore, as another result concerning the reconstruction of infinite graphs, we prove that the number c(G) of components of an infinite graph G is re~ons~uct~b~e if there is at
Let X be an infinite k-valent graph with polynomial growth of degree d, i.e. there is an integer d and a constant c such that fx(n) 3, d> 1, 123, there exist k-valent connected graphs with polynomial growth of degree d and girth greater than 1. This means that in general the girth of graphs with pol
For a linear code over GF (q) we consider two kinds of ''subcodes'' called residuals and punctures. When does the collection of residuals or punctures determine the isomorphism class of the code? We call such a code residually or puncture reconstructible. We investigate these notions of reconstructi
## Abstract Suppose that __G, H__ are infinite graphs and there is a bijection Ψ; V(G) Ψ V(H) such that __G__ ‐ ξ ≅ H ‐ Ψ(ξ) for every ξ ∼ __V__(G). Let __J__ be a finite graph and /(π) be a cardinal number for each π ≅ __V__(J). Suppose also that either /(π) is infinite for every π ≅ __V__(J) or _
## Abstract Based on the terms “end” and “cofinal spanning subtree” a general notion of Hamiltonicity of infinite graphs is developed. It is shown that the cube of every connected locally finite graph is Hamiltonian in this generalized sense.
