Disjoint 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 number of edges in a graph on n vertices ensuring the existence of two vertex disjoint chorded cycles is also settled.
