Abstract
Let G be a graph and ζ(G) be the greatest integer n such that every set of n points in G lies on a cycle [8]. It is clear that ζ(G)≥2 for 2-connected planar graphs. Moreover, it is easy to construct arbitrarily large 2-connected planar graphs for which ζ=2. On the other hand, by a well-known theorem of Tutte [5], [6], if G is planar and 4-connected, it has a Hamiltonian cycle, i.e., ζ(G)=|V(G)| for all 4-connected (and hence for all 5-connected) planar graphs.
