Ecclesiastical ring gold, stone-set ring. Roman Catholic bishops traditionally have their episcopal ring set with an amethyst. Aside from the rings a bishop purchases or is given by others, his rings belong to the Church; he will have inherited the previous bishop's ring collection, which is held in trust. While all hierarchs are accorded the honor of being buried wearing a ring, all rings belonging to the Church will be returned to the Church upon the retirement or death of any hierarch. In a Decree of Pope Boniface IV (A.D. 610) it describes monks raised to the episcopal dignity as "anulo pontificali
Uniquely colorable graph cubic graph is uniquely 3-edge-colorable, it must have exactly three Hamiltonian cycles, formed by the edges with two of its three colors, but some cubic graphs with only three Hamiltonian cycles are not uniquely 3-edge-colorable . Every simple planar cubic graph that is uniquely 3-edge-colorable contains a triangle , but observed that the generalized Petersen graph "G"(9,2) is non-planar, triangle-free, and uniquely 3-edge-colorable. For many years it was the only known such graph, and it had been conjectured to be the only such graph (see and ) but now infinitely many triangle-free non-planar cubic uniquely 3-edge-colorable graphs are known .
