## Abstract Let __G__ be a simple graph of order __n__ and minimal degree >βcn (0β<βcβ<β1/2). We prove that (1) There exist __n__~0~β=β__n__~0~(__c__) and __k__β=β__k__(__c__) such that if __n__β>β__n__~0~ and __G__ contains a cycle __C__~__t__~ for some __t__β>β2__k__, then __G__ contains a cycle

β¦ Synopsis
We show that every graph G on n vertices with minimal degree at least n / k contains a cycle of length at least [ n / ( k -111. This verifies a conjecture of Katchalski. When k = 2 our result reduces t o the classical theorem of Dirac that asserts that if all degrees are at least i n then G is Hamiltonian.

## Abstract For a graph __G__, we denote by __d__~__G__~(__x__) and ΞΊ(__G__) the degree of a vertex __x__ in __G__ and the connectivity of __G__, respectively. In this article, we show that if __G__ is a 3βconnected graph of order __n__ such that __d__~__G__~(__x__) + __d__~__G__~(__y__) + __d__~__
## SUM MARY An efficient algorithm is developed for the formation of a minimal cycle basis of a graph. This method reduces the number of cycles to be considered as (candidates for being the elements of a minimal basis and makes practical use of the Greedy algorithm feasible. A comparison is made b
