Spanning Eulerian Subgraphs In Claw-Free Graphs, Zhi-Hong Chen, Hong-Jian Lai, Weiqi Luo, Yehomg Shao

A graph is claw-free if it has no induced K 1,3, subgraph. A graph is essential 4-edge-connected if removing at most three edges, the resulting graph has at most one component having edges. In this note, we show that every essential 4-edge-connected claw free graph has a spanning Eulerian subgraph with maximum degree at most 4.
