Heavy cycles in 2-connected triangle-free weighted graphs

A weighted graph is one in which every edge e is assigned a nonnegative number, called the weight of e. The sum of the weights of the edges incident with a vertex v is called the weighted degree of v, denoted by d^w(v). The weight of a cycle is defined as the sum of the weights of its edges. Fujisawa proved that if G is a 2-connected triangle-free weighted graph such that the minimum weighted degree of G is at least d, then G contains a cycle of weight at least 2d. In this paper, we proved that if G is a 2-connected triangle-free weighted graph of even size such that d^w(u) + d^w(v) ≥ 2d holds for any pair of nonadjacent vertices u, v ∈ V (G), then G contains a cycle of weight at least 2d.
