Abstract

The biparticity Ξ²(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of bipartite graphs required to cover G. It is proved that for any graph G, Ξ²(G) = {log~2~Ο‡(G)}. In view of the recent announcement of the Four Color Theorem, it follows that the biparticity of every planar graph is 2.

The hamiltonian path graph H(F) of a graph F is that graph having the same vertex set as F and in which two vertices u and u are adjacent if and only if F contains a hamiltonian u -u path. First, in response to a conjecture of Chartrand, Kapoor and Nordhaus, a characterization of nonhamiltonian grap
