Regular graph

Task number: 4173

Show that if the 2k-regular graph has an even number of edges, then either k or |VG| is even.

  • Solution

    If we count the degrees, we get twice the total number of edges, that is |EG|=2k|VG|2=k|VG|.

    If both factors were odd, we would get an odd number of edges, which would contradict the assumptions.
