In a paper with the same title (Enomoto et al., 1985) we proved Chv&al's conjecture that ktough graphs have k-factors if they satisfy trivial necessary conditions. In this paper, we introduce a variation of toughness, and prove a stronger result for the existence of l-or 2-factors. This solves a con
## Theorem 2. Let G be a 2-tough graph. Then for any function f : V(G)+ { 1, 2) such that C xsvCcj f (x) in euen, G has an f-factor. Before stating the second main theorem of this paper it is necessary to make the following definition. Let G be a graph and let g and f be two integer-valued functi
## Abstract Degree conditions on the vertices of a __t__βtough graph __G__(1 β¦ __t__ β¦ 2) that ensure the existence of a 2βfactor in __G__ are presented. These conditions are asymptotically best possible for every __t__ Ο΅ [1, 3/2] and for infinitely many __t__ Ο΅ [3/2, 2].
