Graph Theory Unit 3

The document discusses Eulerian and Hamiltonian graphs, defining Eulerian trails and cycles, and establishing conditions for a graph to be Eulerian based on vertex degrees. It also covers Hamiltonian cycles, providing theorems related to the existence of such cycles in connected graphs. Additionally, it includes proofs and corollaries regarding the partitioning of edges into cycles and the characteristics of Hamiltonian graphs.
