Disjoint Cycles and Chorded Cycles in Graphs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Very recently, Bialostocki et al. proposed the following conjecture. Let r, s be two nonnegative integers and let G = (V (G), E(G)) be a graph with |V (G)| ≥ 3r + 4s and minimum degree δ(G) ≥ 2r + 3s. Then G contains a collection of r cycles and s chorded cycles, all vertex-disjoint. We prove that this conjecture is true.

Chorded Cycles
A chord is an edge between two vertices of a cycle that is not an edge on the cycle. If a cycle has at least one chord, then the cycle is called a chorded cycle, and if a cycle has at least two chords, then the cycle is called a doubly chorded cycle. The minimum degree and the minimum degree-sum conditions are given for a graph to contain vertex-disjoint chorded (doubly chorded) cycles containi...
متن کاملDisjoint chorded cycles in graphs
We propose the following conjecture to generalize results of Pósa and Corrádi Hajnal. Let r, s be nonnegative integers and let G be a graph with |V (G)| ≥ 3r + 4s and minimal degree δ(G) ≥ 2r + 3s. Then G contains a collection of r + s vertex disjoint cycles, s of them with a chord. We prove the conjecture for r = 0, s = 2 and for s = 1. The corresponding extremal problem, to find the minimum n...
متن کامل0n removable cycles in graphs and digraphs
In this paper we define the removable cycle that, if $Im$ is a class of graphs, $Gin Im$, the cycle $C$ in $G$ is called removable if $G-E(C)in Im$. The removable cycles in Eulerian graphs have been studied. We characterize Eulerian graphs which contain two edge-disjoint removable cycles, and the necessary and sufficient conditions for Eulerian graph to have removable cycles h...
متن کاملDisjoint Chorded Cycles of the Same Length
Corrádi and Hajnal [1] showed that any graph of order at least 3k with minimum degree at least 2k contains k vertex-disjoint cycles. This minimum degree condition is sharp, because the complete bipartite graph K2k−1,n−2k+1 does not contain k vertex-disjoint cycles. About the existence of vertex-disjoint cycles of the same length, Thomassen [4] conjectured that the same minimum degree condition ...
متن کاملIndependent cycles and chorded cycles in graphs
In this paper, we investigate sufficient conditions on the neighborhood of independent vertices which imply that a graph contains k independent cycles or chorded cycles. This is related to several results of Corrádi and Hajnal, Justesen, Wang, and Faudree and Gould on graphs containing k independent cycles, and Finkel on graphs containing k chorded cycles. In particular, we establish that if in...
