Abstract

Dirac (1962) showed that the planar graphs with no prism minor are the graphs obtainable by 2‐sums from bonds, cycles, wheels and K~5~_e_'s. We give a new characterization of these graphs in terms of an optimization problem defined on the cycle bases of a graph.

The Kneser graph K (n, k) has as its vertex set all k-subsets of an n-set and two k-subsets are adjacent if they are disjoint. The odd graph O k is a special case of Kneser graph when n = 2k +1. A long standing conjecture claims that O k is hamiltonian for all k>2. We show that the prism over O k is

We investigate some properties of graphs whose cycle space has a basis constituted of triangles ('null-homotopic' graphs). We obtain characterizations in the case of planar graphs, and more generally, of graphs not contractible onto Ks. These characterizations involve separating subsets and decompos

## Abstract Every 3‐connected planar, cubic, triangle‐free graph with __n__ vertices has a bipartite subgraph with at least 29__n__/24β€‰βˆ’β€‰7/6 edges. The constant 29/24 improves the previously best known constant 6/5 which was considered best possible because of the graph of the dodecahedron. Example
