Abstract
Several ways to separate a connected graph into three components by the removal of edges are discussed. Graphical parameters that count the number of edges removed are introduced and the relations between these parameters are given.

An edge of a 3-connected graph G is said to be removable if G&e is a subdivision of a 3-connected graph. Holton et al. (1990) proved that every 3-connected graph of order at least five has at least W(|G| +10)Γ6X removable edges. In this paper, we prove that every 3-connected graph of order at least
We prove that every connected graph on n vertices can be covered by at most nΓ2+O(n 3Γ4 ) paths. This implies that a weak version of a well-known conjecture of Gallai is asymptotically true.
Let H=(V H , E H ) be a graph, and let k be a positive integer. A graph G=(V G , E G ) is H-coverable with overlap k if there is a covering of the edges of G by copies of H such that no edge of G is covered more than k times. Denote by overlap(H, G) the minimum k for which G is H-coverable with over
