Contractible subgraphs, Thomassen's conjecture and the dominating cycle conjecture for snarks

We show that the conjectures by Matthews and Sumner (every 4-connected claw-free graph is Hamiltonian), by Thomassen (every 4-connected line graph is Hamiltonian) and by Fleischner (every cyclically 4-edge-connected cubic graph has either a 3-edge-...
Extremal hypergraphs for Ryser's Conjecture

Ryser's Conjecture states that any r-partite r-uniform hypergraph has a vertex cover of size at most r1 times the size of the largest matching. For r=2, the conjecture is simply Knig's Theorem and every bipartite graph is a witness for its tightness. ...
A planar linear arboricity conjecture
CIAC'10: Proceedings of the 7th international conference on Algorithms and Complexity

The linear arboricity la(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of linear forests (graphs where every connected component is a path) that partition the edges of G. In 1984, Akiyama et al. [1] stated the Linear Arboricity Conjecture (LAC), that the linear ...
