β¦ Synopsis
Let G be a graph. The number of ways of selecting k vertices in G such that the subgraph induced by the k selected vertices containing 1 edges may be considered as Whitworth runs. For two arbitrary graphs Gr and G2 we show that the generating function of G1 can be written as a sum of the generating function of GZ. As an application we derive a difference equation satisfted by the generating function of a line maph and that of a cycle graph. Two independent solutions in the closed-form are found. One is equivalent to the Whitworth bracelet problem with two dors. Furthermore, a line and a cycle graph and a two-line graph have been studied.
We show that all sohuions can be written as a sum of the solutions for single-line cases.

An (n, 9) graph is a graph on n points and 9 edges (no loops, no parallel lines); except where we state otherwise, the n points are labelled. A network is a graph in which two points are distinguished as a positive pole and a negative pole respectively. A block is a 2-connected graph (i,e. a graph f
