Let \(G=(V, E)\) be a loop-free connected undirected graph with \(|V| \geq 2\). Prove that \(G\) contains two vertices \(v, w\), where \(\operatorname{deg}(v)=\operatorname{deg}(w)\)
a) For \(n \in \mathbf{Z}^{+}, n \geq 2\), show that the number of distinct Hamilton cycles in the graph \(K_{n, n}\) is \((1 / 2)(n-1) ! n !\) b) How many different Hamilton paths are there for \(K_{n, n}\), \(n \geq 1 ?\)
Let \(G=(V, E)\) be a directed graph, where \(|V|=n\) and \(|E|=e\). What are the values for \(\sum_{v \in V} i d(v)\) and \(\sum_{v \in V} \operatorname{od}(v) ?\)
a) Let \(G=(V, E)\) be a loop-free undirected graph, where \(|V|=6\) and \(\operatorname{deg}(v)=2\) for all \(v \in V\), Up to isomorphism how many such graphs \(G\) are there? b) Answer part (a) for \(|V|=7\). c) Let \(G_{1}=\left(V_{1}, E_{1}\right)\) be a loop-free undirected 3 -regular graph with \(\left|V_{1}\right|=6\). Up to isomorphism how many such graphs \(G_{1}\) are there? d) Answer part (c) for \(\left|V_{1}\right|=7\) and \(G_{1}\) 4-regular. e) Generalize the results in parts (c) and (d).
