Mulder, H.M., Julius Petersen's theory of regular graphs, Discrete Mathematics 100 (1992) 157-17s. In 1891 the Danish mathematician Julius Petersen (1839-1910) published a paper on the factorization of regular graphs. This was the first paper in the history of mathematics to contain fundamental results explicitly in graph theory. In this report Petersen's results are analysed and their development in subsequent decades are followed. 0012-365X/92/$05.00 0 1992 -Elsevier Science Publishers B.V. All rights reserved
