A degree condition for cycles passing through specified vertices and edges. (English) Zbl 1522.05045

Summary: R. Shi [J. Graph Theory 16, No. 3, 267–271 (1992; Zbl 0761.05066)] and B. Bollobás and G. Brightwell [Combinatorica 13, No. 2, 147–155 (1993; Zbl 0780.05033)], independently, obtained a degree sum condition for the existence of a cycle passing through specified vertices. K. A. Berman [Discrete Math. 46, 9–13 (1983; Zbl 0513.05033)] gave a degree sum condition for the existence of a cycle passing through specified edges. In this paper, we obtain a common generalization of these two results.
