Chapter 2.3, Problem 37ES
In the back of an old cupboard you discusser a note signed by a pirate famous for his bizarre sense of humor and love of logical puzzles. In the note he wrote deal he had hidden treasure somewhere on the property. He listed five true statements (a-e below) and challenged the reader to use them to figure out the location of the treasure.
a. If this house is next to a lake, then the treasure is not m the kitchen.
b. If the tree in the front yard is an elm, then the treasure is in the kitchen.
c. This house is next to a lake.
d. The tree in the front yard is an elm or the treasure is buried under the flagpole.
If the tree in the back yard is an oak, then the treasure is in the garage.
Where is the treasure hidden?

Let Go (Vo, Eo) and G₁
=
(V1, E1) be two graphs that
⚫ have at least 2 vertices each,
⚫are disjoint (i.e., Von V₁ = 0),
⚫ and are both Eulerian.
Consider connecting Go and G₁ by adding a set of new edges F, where each new edge
has one end in Vo and the other end in V₁.
(a) Is it possible to add a set of edges F of the form (x, y) with x € Vo and y = V₁ so
that the resulting graph (VUV₁, Eo UE₁ UF) is Eulerian?
(b) If so, what is the size of the smallest possible F?
