✦ Synopsis

Several authors have shown that if G is a connected graph of even order then its square G2 has a I-factor. We show that the square of any connected graph of order 2n has at least n I-factors and describe all the extremal graphs.

## Abstract We prove that for any planar graph __G__ with maximum degree Δ, it holds that the chromatic number of the square of __G__ satisfies χ(__G__^2^) ≤ 2Δ + 25. We generalize this result to integer labelings of planar graphs involving constraints on distances one and two in the graph. © 2002

Extending a result by Hartman and Rosa (1985, Europ. J. Combinatorics 6, 45-48), we prove that for any Abelian group G of even order, except for G Z 2 n with n > 2, there exists a onefactorization of the complete graph admitting G as a sharply-vertex-transitive automorphism group.
