Let $k$ and $n$ be two nonnegative integers with $n\equiv0$ (mod 2), and let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ with a 1-factor. Then $G$ is said to be $k$-extendable for $0\leq k\leq\frac{n-2}{2}$ if every matching in $G$ of size $k$ can be…

In this paper we explore some results concerning the spread of the line and the total graph of a given graph. In particular, it is proved that for an $(n,m)$ connected graph $G$ with $m > n \geq 4$ the spread of $G$ is less than or equal to…
