AbstractIf G is a connected cubic graph with ρ vertices, ρ > 4, then G has a vertex-induced forest containing at least (5ρ - 2)/8 vertices. In case G is triangle-free, the lower bound is improved to (2ρ — l)/3. Examples are given to show that no such lower bound is possible for vertex-induced trees.

AbstractIt is known that a Steiner triple system is projective if and only if it does not contain the four-triple configuration C14. We find three configurations such that a Steiner triple system is affine if and only if it does not contain one of these configurations. Similarly, we characterise Hall triple systems using two forbidden configurations.Our characterisations have several interesting corollaries in the area of edge-colourings of graphs. A cubic graph G is S-edge-colourable for a Steiner triple system S if its edges can be coloured with points of S in such a way that the points assigned to three edges sharing a vertex form a triple in S. Among others, we show that all cubic graphs are S-edge-colourable for every non-projective nonaffine point-transitive Steiner triple system S.

Let $d\geq 3$ be a fixed integer.   We give an asympotic formula for the expected number of spanning trees in a uniformly random $d$-regular graph with $n$ vertices. (The asymptotics are as $n\to\infty$, restricted to even $n$ if $d$ is odd.) We also obtain the asymptotic distribution of the number of spanning trees in a uniformly random cubic graph, and conjecture that the corresponding result holds for arbitrary (fixed) $d$. Numerical evidence is presented which supports our conjecture.

AbstractA near 1-factor of a graph of order 2n ≧ 4 is a subgraph isomorphic to (n − 2) K2 ∪ P3 ∪ K1. Wallis determined, for each r ≥ 3, the order of a smallest r-regular graph of even order without a 1-factor; while for each r ≧ 3, Chartrand, Goldsmith and Schuster determined the order of a smallest r-regular, (r − 2)-edge-connected graph of even order without a 1-factor. These results are extended to graphs without near 1-factors. It is known that every connected, cubic graph with less than six bridges has a near 1-factor. The order of a smallest connected, cubic graph with exactly six bridges and no near 1-factor is determined.

It is proved that if G is a connected cubic graph of order p all of whose bridges lie on r edge-disjoint paths of G, then every maximum matching of G contains at least P/2 − └2r/3┘ edges. Moreover, this result is shown to be best possible.
