Even Subdivision-Factors of Cubic Graphs

Abstract

We call a set S of graphs an "even subdivison-factor" of a cubic graph G if G contains a spanning subgraph H such that every component of H has an even number of vertices and is a subdivision of an element of S. We show that any set of 2-connected graphs which is an even subdivison-factor of every 3-connected cubic graph, satisfies certain properties. As a consequence, we disprove a conjecture which was stated in an attempt to solve the circuit double cover conjecture.
