Bondy and Vince proved that a graph of minimum degree at least three contains two cycles whose lengths differ by one or two, which was conjectured by Erd\H{o}s. Gao, Li, Ma and Xie gave an average degree counterpart of Bondy-Vince's result,…

Bondy and Vince showed that every graph with minimum degree at least three contains two cycles of lengths differing by one or two.We prove the following average degree counterpart that every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with at least $\frac52(n-1)$…

Dean conjectured that for each integer $k \ge 3$, every graph with minimum degree at least $k$ has a cycle whose length is divisible by $k$; this conjecture is known to be true for all $k\neq 5$. For $k\in\{3,4\}$, stronger statements are…

Two new sufficient conditions for generalized cycles (including Hamilton and dominating cycles as special cases) in an arbitrary k-connected graph (k=1,2,...) are derived, which prove the truth of Bondy's (1980) famous conjecture for some…

Liu and Ma [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 2018] conjectured that every $2$-connected non-bipartite graph with minimum degree at least $k+1$ contains $\lceil k/2\rceil $ cycles with consecutive odd lengths. In particular, they showed that this…

A recently posed question of Haggkvist and Scott's asked whether or not there exists a constant c such that if G is a graph of minimum degree ck then G contains cycles of k consecutive even lengths. In this paper we answer the question by…

A conjecture of Birmel\'e, Bondy and Reed states that for any integer $\ell\geq 3$, every graph $G$ without two vertex-disjoint cycles of length at least $\ell$ contains a set of at most $\ell$ vertices which meets all cycles of length at…

For a 2-connected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and two vertices $x,y\in V(G)$, we prove that there is an $(x,y)$-path of length at least $k$ if there are at least $\frac{n-1}{2}$ vertices in $V(G)\backslash \{x,y\}$ of degree at least $k$.…

Dean conjectured three decades ago that every graph with minimum degree at least $k\ge 3$ contains a cycle whose length is divisible by $k$. While the conjecture has been verified for $k\in \{3,4\}$, it remains open for $k\ge 5$. A weaker…

In this paper, we prove a tight minimum degree condition in general graphs for the existence of paths between two given endpoints, whose lengths form a long arithmetic progression with common difference one or two. This allows us to obtain…

In this paper, we study the stability result of a well-known theorem of Bondy. We prove that for any 2-connected non-hamiltonian graph, if every vertex except for at most one vertex has degree at least $k$, then it contains a cycle of…

Recently Lin, Wang and Zhou have proved that every $3$-connected nonbipartite graph of minimum degree at least $k$ with $k\ge 6$ and order at least $k+2$ contains $k$ cycles of consecutive lengths. They also conjecture that this result is…

Answering a question of H\"aggkvist and Scott, Verstra\"ete proved that every sufficiently large graph with average degree at least $k^2+19k+10$ contains $k$ vertex-disjoint cycles of consecutive even lengths. He further conjectured that…

For a graph $L$ and an integer $k\geq 2$, $R_k(L)$ denotes the smallest integer $N$ for which for any edge-colouring of the complete graph $K_N$ by $k$ colours there exists a colour $i$ for which the corresponding colour class contains $L$…

Erd\H{o}s, Faudree, Rousseau and Schelp observed the following fact for every fixed integer $k\geq 2$: Every graph on $n\geq k-1$ vertices with at least $(k-1)(n-k+2)+{k-2\choose 2}$ edges contains a subgraph with minimum degree at least…

In 1975, Pippenger and Golumbic conjectured that every n-vertex graph has at most $n^k/(k^k - k)$ induced cycles of length k for k at least 5. We prove that every n-vertex graph has at most $2 n^k/k^k$ induced cycles of length k.

There has been extensive research on cycle lengths in graphs with large minimum degree. In this paper, we obtain several new and tight results in this area. Let $G$ be a graph with minimum degree at least $k+1$. We prove that if $G$ is…

Thomassen, in 1983, conjectured that for a positive integer $k$, every $2$-connected non-bipartite graph of minimum degree at least $k + 1$ contains cycles of all lengths modulo $k$. In this paper, we settle this conjecture affirmatively.

In a graph, $k$ cycles are {\em admissible} if their lengths form an arithmetic progression with common difference one or two. Let $G$ be a 2-connected graph with minimum degree at least $k\geqslant 4$. We prove that \begin{itemize} \item…

A conjecture of Verstra\"ete states that for any fixed $\ell < k$ there exists a positive constant $c$ such that any $C_{2k}$-free graph $G$ contains a $C_{2\ell}$-free subgraph with at least $c |E(G)|$ edges. For $\ell = 2$, this…
