Abstract: By Petersen's Theorem, a bridgeless cubic graph has a 2-factor. Fleischner ( Discrete Math., 101, 33-37 (1992)) has extended this result to bridgeless graphs of minimum degree at least three by showing that every such graph has an even factor without isolated vertices. Let m > 0 be even and m > 0 be odd. In this paper, we prove that every m-edge-connected graph with minimum degree at least m + 1 contains an even factor with minimum degree at least m and every ( m + 1)-edge-connected graph contains an odd factor with minimum degree at least m, which further extends Fleischner's result. Moreover, we show that our results are best possible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
