A chorded cycle is a cycle with at least one chord. Gould asked in [Graphs Comb. 38 (2022) 189] the question: What spectral conditions imply a graph contains a chorded cycle? For a graph with fixed size, extremal spectral conditions are…

For a graph $G$, let $\sigma_{2}(G)$ be the minimum degree sum of two non-adjacent vertices in $G$. A chord of a cycle in a graph $G$ is an edge of $G$ joining two non-consecutive vertices of the cycle. In this paper, we prove the following…

What spectral conditions imply a graph contains a chorded cycle? This question was asked by R.J. Gould in 2022. We answer two modified versions of Gould's question by giving tight spectral conditions that imply the existence of doubly…

Answers are offered to the Gould's question to find spectral sufficient conditions for a graph to have a chorded cycle via signless Laplacian spectral radius. The conditions are tight.

It is proved that for a graph of order $n$, where $n\ge 6$, if the signless Laplacian index is larger than or equal to certain value depending on $n$, then the graph contains a trebly chorded cycle, where the chords incident to a common…

A chorded cycle in a graph $G$ is a cycle on which two nonadjacent vertices are adjacent in the graph $G$. In 2010, Gao and Qiao independently proved a graph of order at least $4s$, in which the neighborhood union of any two nonadjacent…

A long-standing conjecture of Thomassen says that every longest cycle of a $3$-connected graph has a chord. Thomassen (2018) proved that if $G$ is $2$-connected and cubic, then any longest cycle must have a chord. He also showed that if $G$…

In this paper, we show that for a graph of order $n$, where $n\ge 5$, if the signless Laplacian index is larger than or equal to certain value depending on $n$, then the graph contains a doubly chorded cycle, where the chords incident to a…

A long-standing conjecture of Thomassen says that every longest cycle of a $3$-connected graph has a chord. Thomassen (2018) proved that if $G$ is a $2$-connected cubic graph, then any longest cycle must have a chord. He also showed that in…

In this paper we provide some sufficient conditions for the existence of an odd or even cycle that passing a given vertex or an edge in $2$-connected or $2$-edge connected graphs. We provide some similar conditions for the existence of an…

Chordal graphs are the graphs in which every cycle of length at least four has a chord. A set $S$ is a vertex separator for vertices $a$ and $b$ if the removal of $S$ of the graph separates $a$ and $b$ into distinct connected components. A…

How many edges in an $n$-vertex graph will force the existence of a cycle with as many chords as it has vertices? Almost 30 years ago, Chen, Erd\H{o}s and Staton considered this question and showed that any $n$-vertex graph with $2n^{3/2}$…

A chordless cycle (induced cycle) $C$ of a graph is a cycle without any chord, meaning that there is no edge outside the cycle connecting two vertices of the cycle. A chordless path is defined similarly. In this paper, we consider the…

In a graph $G$, a subset of vertices $S \subseteq V(G)$ is said to be cyclable if there is a cycle containing the vertices in some order. $G$ is said to be $k$-cyclable if any subset of $k \geq 2$ vertices is cyclable. If any $k$…

We show that a cubic graph $G$ of order $n$ has an induced $2$-regular subgraph of order at least a) $\frac{n-2}{4-\frac{4}{k}}$, if $G$ has no induced cycle of length more than $k$, b) $\frac{5n+6}{8}$, if $G$ has no induced cycle of…

The cycles are the only $2$-connected graphs in which any two nonadjacent vertices form a vertex cut. We generalize this fact by proving that for every integer $k\ge 3$ there exists a unique graph $G$ satisfying the following conditions:…

We call a graph $G$ pancyclic if it contains at least one cycle of every possible length $m$, for $3\le m\le |V(G)|$. In this paper, we define a new property called chorded pancyclicity. We explore forbidden subgraphs in claw-free graphs…

In a finite undirected simple graph, a chordless cycle is an induced subgraph which is a cycle. A graph is called cyclically orientable if it admits an orientation in which every chordless cycle is cyclically oriented. We propose an…

We conjecture that a 2-connected graph $G$ of order $n$, in which $d(x)+d(y)\geq n-k$ for every pair of non-adjacent vertices $x$ and $y$, contains a cycle of length $n-k$ ($k<n/2$), unless $G$ is bipartite and $n-k$ is odd. This…

In this work we investigate the chordality of squares and line graph squares of graphs. We prove a sufficient condition for the chordality of squares of graphs not containing induced cycles of length at least five. Moreover, we characterize…
