[For the entire collection see Zbl 0734.00014.] We say a graph \(G\) is overfull if size of \(G\) over \(\lfloor{1\over 2} \hbox { order of } G\rfloor\) is greater than maximum vertex degree \(h(G)\) of \(G\). A subgraph \(H\) of \(G\) is called a \(h(G)\)-overfull subgraph of \(G\) if \(H\) is overfull and \(h(H)=h(G)\). There is stated the following conjecture and five striking implications (without proofs) of it. A planar graph \(G\) has chromatic index \(h(G)\) iff \(G\) contains no \(h(G)\)- overfull subgraph.
