2-factors in dense graphs (Q1917480): Difference between revisions

In 1978, Sauer and Spencer proposed the following conjecture: Any graph with \(n\) vertices and minimum degree at least \({2\over 3} n\) contains every graph \(H\) on \(n\) vertices with maximum degree at most 2. This paper proves that the conjecture is true for sufficiently large \(n\).
