摘要
Let G be a graph with E(G) not-equal empty set. The line graph of G, written L(G), has E(G) as its vertex set, where two vertices are adjacent in L(G) if and only if the corresponding edges are adjacent in G. Thomassen conjectured that all 4-connected line graphs are hamiltonian [2]. We show that this conjecture holds for planar graphs.
