Abstract

An even factor of a graph is a spanning subgraph in which each vertex has a positive even degree. Let G be a bridgeless simple graph with minimum degree at least 3 . Jackson and Yoshimoto (2007) showed that G has an even factor containing two arbitrary prescribed edges. They also proved that G has an even factor in which each component has order at least four. Moreover, Xiong, Lu and Han (2009) showed that for each pair of edges e 1 and e 2 of G , there is an even factor containing e 1 and e 2 in which each component containing neither e 1 nor e 2 has order at least four. In this paper we improve this result and prove that G has an even factor containing e 1 and e 2 such that each component has order at least four.
