Let G be a 2-connected d-regular graph on n rd (r 3) vertices and c(G) denote the circumference of G. Bondy conjectured that c(G) 2nÂ(r&1) if n is large enough. In this paper, we show that c(G) 2nÂ(r&1)+2(r&3)Â(r&1) for any integer r 3. In particular, G is hamiltonian if r=3. This generalizes a resu

## Abstract Let __C__ be a longest cycle in the 3‐connected graph __G__ and let __H__ be a component of __G__ − __V__(__C__) such that |__V__(__H__)| ≥ 3. We supply estimates of the form |__C__| ≥ 2__d__(__u__) + 2__d__(__v__) − α(4 ≤ α ≤ 8), where __u__,__v__ are suitably chosen non‐adjacent verti
Various Hamiltonian-like properties are investigated in the squares of connected graphs free of some set of forbidden subgraphs. The star K,+ the subdivision graph of &, and the subdivision graph of K1,3 minus an endvertex play central roles. In particular, we show that connected graphs free of the
