Networks: Covering each edge and starting and ending at the same vertice when repeating edges must be involved.

I'm in year 11 and my question is regarding a certain topic that I've come across in my curriculum. The problem surrounding this question is about creating a path of minimum length that covers each ...

e <= 3v - 6 for planar graph question: why does every face (of a planar graph) have to have at least three sides?

Can't we make a face with just two edges(sides) and two vertices? We just connect those two vertices twice each with different edges and we can make a face between the two edges with only two vertices ...

Is this degree sequence planar?

For the degree sequence [6,6,4,4,4,4,2,2,2,2]. Then this graph has $f = 10$ by euler's formula. Let $T$ be the number of triangles. Then the inequalities $2e = 36 \geq 3T + 4(10 - T)$ shows that $T \...

Maximal graph not containing a subdivision of $K_5$ is $2$-connected?

I am trying to prove that a graph not containing no subdivisions of $K_5$, such that the addition of any edge would result in the existence of such a subdivision, is $2$-connected. I already know the ...

How can one justify if the graph is planar from adjacency matrix?

Given an adjacency matrix of a graph $G$, I was asked to do the following without drawing the graph: A) Find the vertex of largest degree. B) Does the graph have an Euler Circuit? C) Is the graph ...

Graph with conditions

G is a graph whose vertex set is $\{1,2, ... , 82\}$, vertices $i$ and $j$ are adjacent iff $|i-j| \mod 4 = 0 \text{ and } i \neq j$. (a) Calculate the chromatic number of $G$. (b) Is $G$ Eulerian? ...

Is there a simple planar graph with n vertices which has the most possible edges that is also Eulerian

For each $n$, where $n>=3$, are there any graphs in the set of all graphs with $n$ vertices that are simple and planar, and have the most possible number of edges, that also have an Eulerian path ...

Is there a $6$ vertex planar graph which which has Eulerian path of length $9$?

Let $G$ be a simple graph with Eulerian path of length $9$. There're two non-adjacent vertices $u, v$ in $G$ and if we connect $u$ and $v$ by an edge $G$ is not planar anymore. Does such a graph exist ...

Planar graph has an euler cycle iff its faces can be colored with 2 colors

Planar graph has an euler cycle iff its faces can be properly colored with 2 colors (such way the colors of two faces that has the common edge are different). I have an idea to consider the dual ...

Prove that Petersen's graph is non-planar using Euler's formula

Prove that Petersen's graph is non-planar using Euler's formula. I know that $n - m + f = 2$. But should I count $f$ and prove that the summation does not equal to two or solve to get $f =7$ and ...
