On the number of 4-contractible edges in plane triangulations

Toshiki Abe, Michitaka Furuya, Raiji Mukae +1

In 2007, Ando and Egawa proved a theorem which provides a lower bound on the number of contractible edges preserving -connectedness in -connected graphs. In this paper, we re…

A new strategy for finding spanning trees without small degree stems

Michitaka Furuya, Shoichi Tsuchiya

For an integer , a spanning tree of a graph without vertices of degree from to is called a {\it -ST} of the graph. The concept of -STs is a natural e…

Refinements of degree conditions for the existence of a spanning tree without small degree stems

Michitaka Furuya, Akira Saito, Shoichi Tsuchiya

A spanning tree of a graph without no vertices of degree is called a {\it homeomorphically irreducible spanning tree} (or a {\it HIST}) of the graph. Albertson, Berman, Hutchin…

Hamiltonicity of planar graphs with a forbidden minor

M. N. Ellingham, Emily A. Marshall, Kenta Ozeki +1

Tutte showed that -connected planar graphs are Hamiltonian, but it is well known that -connected planar graphs need not be Hamiltonian. We show that -minor-free -…

Difference of forbidden pairs containing a claw

Guantao Chen, Michitaka Furuya, Songling Shan +2

When we study forbidden subgraph conditions guaranteeing graphs to have some properties, a claw (or ) frequently appears as one of forbidden subgraphs. Recently, Furuya an…

Dominating cycles and forbidden pairs containing a path of order 5

Shuya Chiba, Michitaka Furuya, Shoichi Tsuchiya

A cycle is a graph is dominating if every edge of the graph is incident with a vertex of the cycle. In this paper, we investigate the characterization of the class of the forbidden…

Forbidden pairs and the existence of a dominating cycle

Shuya Chiba, Michitaka Furuya, Shoichi Tsuchiya

A cycle in a graph is called dominating if every edge of the graph is incident with a vertex of the cycle. In this paper, we investigate forbidden pairs guaranteeing the existence…

A characterization of -minor-free graphs

M. N. Ellingham, Emily A. Marshall, Kenta Ozeki +1

We provide a complete structural characterization of -minor-free graphs. The -connected -minor-free graphs consist of nine small graphs on at most eight vertic…
