Let k β₯ 2, be an integer and M be a closed two-manifold with Euler characteristic Ο(M) β€ 0. We prove that each polyhedral map G on M, which has at least (8k 2 + 6k -6)|Ο (M)| vertices, contains a connected subgraph H of order k such that every vertex of this subgraph has, in G, the degree at most 4k

β¦ Synopsis
We prove that every 3-connected planar graph G of order at least k contains a connected subgraph H on k vertices each of which has degree (in G) at most 4k + 3, the bound 4k + 3 being best possible. (~

It is known that under appropriate assumptions, each plane graph contains a vertex of degree at most 5 and a pair of adjacent vertices with degree sum at most 13. Two structural assumptions are established for a plane graph which together guarantee the existence of a triple of pairwise adjacent vert
It is well-known that every planar graph has a vertex of degree at most five. Kotzig proved that every 3-connected planar graph has an edge xy such that deg(x) + deg(y) β€ 13. In this article, considering a similar problem for the case of three or more vertices that induce a connected subgraph, we sh
## Abstract A graph __H__ is light in a given class of graphs if there is a constant __w__ such that every graph of the class which has a subgraph isomorphic to __H__ also has a subgraph isomorphic to __H__ whose sum of degrees in __G__ is β€β__w__. Let $\cal G$ be the class of simple planar graphs
