Abstract

A k -tree-Halin graph is a planar graph \(F\cup C\), where F is a forest with at most k components and C is a cycle, such that V(C) is the set of all leaves of F, C bounds a face and no vertex has degree 2. This is a generalization of Halin graphs. We are investigating here the hamiltonicity and traceability of k-tree-Halin graphs.
