Eulerian trail

Path through graph travelling each edge exactly once

Eulerian circuit

Eulerian trail that starts and ends at same vertex

Conditions for Eulerian trail

Connected graph with 0 or 2 odd-degree vertices

Conditions for Eulerian circuit

Connected graph where all vertices have even degree

Degree of a vertex

Number of edges connected to that vertex

Eulerian trail start/end with 2 odd vertices

Must start at one odd vertex, end at the other

Graph with 0 odd vertices has...

Both Eulerian trail and circuit

Graph with exactly 2 odd vertices has...

Only Eulerian trail (no circuit)

Graph with >2 odd vertices has...

Neither Eulerian trail nor circuit

Benefit of Eulerian trails/circuits

Minimises time and distance by not repeating paths
