Strongly pancyclic and dual-pancyclic graphs

Terry A. McKee (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Say that a cycle C almost contains a cycle C¯ if every edge except one of C¯ is an edge of C. Call a graph G strongly pancyclic if every nontriangular cycle C almost contains another cycle C¯ and every nonspanning cycle C is almost contained in another cycle C⁺. This is equivalent to requiring, in addition, that the sizes of C¯ and C⁺ differ by one from the size of C. Strongly pancyclic graphs are pancyclic and chordal, and their cycles enjoy certain interpolation and extrapolation properties...

Edge cycle extendable graphs

Terry A. McKee (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A graph is edge cycle extendable if every cycle C that is formed from edges and one chord of a larger cycle C⁺ is also formed from edges and one chord of a cycle C' of length one greater than C with V(C') ⊆ V(C⁺). Edge cycle extendable graphs are characterized by every block being either chordal (every nontriangular cycle has a chord) or chordless (no nontriangular cycle has a chord); equivalently, every chord of a cycle of length five or more has a noncrossing chord.

Cycles in graphs and related problems

Antoni Marczyk

Similarity:

Our aim is to survey results in graph theory centered around four themes: hamiltonian graphs, pancyclic graphs, cycles through vertices and the cycle structure in a graph. We focus on problems related to the closure result of Bondy and Chvátal, which is a common generalization of two fundamental theorems due to Dirac and Ore. We also describe a number of proof techniques in this domain. Aside from the closure operation we give some applications of Ramsey theory in the research of cycle...
