====== Cyclic double cover conjecture ======

>In graph-theoretic mathematics, a cycle double cover is a collection of cycles in an undirected graph that together include each edge of the graph exactly twice. For instance, for any polyhedral graph, the faces of a convex polyhedron that represents the graph provide a double cover of the graph: each edge belongs to exactly two faces."\\ \\ Source : [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_double_cover|Wikipedia]]

Put another way :

>In every bridgeless graph one can find a family C of cycles such that each edge appears in exactly two cycles of C."

The conjecture was first proposed in 1973 by mathematician George Szekeres. It's also sometimes known as the 'circular embedding conjecture'.

To date, the conjecture has neither been proved nor disproved.
