If a graph G has a Hamiltonian circuit, then G has a subgraph H with the following properties:

(1) H contains every edge of G (2) H is connected (3) H has the same number of edges as vertices (4)Every vertex of H has degree 2

Prove that a map ϕ is an isomorphism of G onto H

(1) the two graphs have the same number of vertices and edges, (2) aϕ is a vertex of H whenever a is a vertex of G, and (3) aϕ and bϕ are adjacent vertices in H whenever a and b are adjacent in G.

Two Circuit Lemmas

If vertices v and w are part of a circuit in G and one edge is removed from the circuit, then there exists a trail from v to w in G. If G is connected and G contains a circuit, then an edge of the circuit can be removed without disconnecting G.

Hand Shaking Lemma Corollary

In any graph or multigraph, the number of vertices of odd degree is even. In particular, a regular graph of odd degree has an even number of vertices.

Sorted Edges Method

List all edges in ascending order. Choose the cheapest edge in order as long as adding the edge does not result in a vertex of degree 3, and the collection of edges contains no cycle of length less than v.
