## Abstract The following theorem is proved: Let __G__ be a graph of even order. Assume that there exists a connected spanning subgraph __F__ of __G__ such that for every set __U__ of four vertices in __G__, if the subgraph of __F__ induced by __U__ is a star, then the subgraph of __G__ induced by

β¦ Synopsis
Let m, 1, n be three odd integers such that m < I < n. It is proved that if a graph G has an mfactor and an rrfactor, then it also has an /factor. In addition, we obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of an f-factor, in terms of vertexdeleted subgraphs.
All graphs considered here are multigraphs (with loops) apd finite. We refer the reader to [2] for standard graph-theoretic terms not defined in this paper. Let G be a graph. Given a function f: V(G) + N = (0, 1,2, . . .}, we say that G has anf-factor if there exists a spanning subgraph H of G such that d&) = f ( x ) for
Iff is the constant function taking the value k then anf-factor is said to be a k-factor. Thus a k-factor of G is a k-regular spanning subgraph of G .
If S C V(G) and H C G\S then e(H, S
) denotes the number of edges having one end vertex in graph H and the other in set S. Given an ordered pair (D, S)
We say that C is an odd or even component of (G\D)\S according to whether dD,S;C) is odd or even. The number of odd components of (G\D)\S is denoted by qG(D, S;f).

## Abstract In this article, we obtain some Oreβtype sufficient conditions for a graph to have a connected factor with degree restrictions. Let Ξ± and __k__ be positive integers with $\alpha \ge {{k + 1} \over{k - 1}}$ if ${{k}} \ge 2$ and $\alpha \ge 4$ if ${{k}}=1$. Let __G__ be a connected graph

## Abstract Let __G__ be a graph and __f__ be a mapping from __V__(__G__) to the positive integers. A subgraph __T__ of __G__ is called an __f__βtree if __T__ forms a tree and __d__~__T__~(__x__)β€__f__(__x__) for any __x__β__V__(__T__).

In this paper we consider designs in polynomial metric spaces with relatively small cardinalities (near to the classical bounds). We obtain restrictions on the distributions of the inner products of points of such designs. These conditions turn out to be strong enough to ensure obtaining nonexistenc
