Prove that if v0 and v1 are distinct vertices of a graph G = (V,E) and a path exists in G from v0 to v1 , then there is a simple path in G from v0 to v1 .
Let G = (V, E) be a connected graph with a bridge e = uv. Prove that
there exist two disjoint sets of vertices U,W whose union is V where any
path of G from vertices of U to vertices of W contains e.
If G = (V, E) has n > 2 vertices and no self-loops, show that there exist two vertices v # w
such that deg(v) = deg(w). Present a counterexample, if G is allowed to have self-loops.
