## Abstract A graph __G__ of order at least 2__n__+2 is said to be __n__βextendable if __G__ has a perfect matching and every set of __n__ independent edges extends to a perfect matching in __G__. We prove that every pair of nonadjacent vertices __x__ and __y__ in a connected __n__βextendable graph

β¦ Synopsis
We prove that if a graph G on n > 32 vertices is hamiltonian and has two nonadjacent vertices u and u with d(u) + d(u) 3 n + z where z = 0 if n is odd and z = 1 if n is even, then G contains all cycles of length m where 3 < m < 1/5(n + 13).

## Abstract A group Ξ is said to possess a hamiltonian generating set if there exists a minimal generating set Ξ for Ξ such that the Cayley color graph __D__~Ξ~(Ξ) is hamiltonian. It is shown that every finite abelian group has a hamiltonian generating set. Certain classes of nonabelian groups are
There is a constructed sequence of polyhedral cyclically 5-connected cubic non-hamiltonian graphs having only 5-gons and 8-gons as faces.
The problem is considered under which conditions a 4-connected planar or projective planar graph has a Hamiltonian cycle containing certain prescribed edges and missing certain forbidden edges. The results are applied to obtain novel lower bounds on the number of distinct Hamiltonian cycles that mus
We show in this paper that the circulant graph G( 2"', 4) is Hamiltonian decomposable, and propose a recursive construction method. This is a partial answer to a problem posed by B. Alspach. @
