An euler path is when you start and one point and end at another in one sweep wirthout lifting you pen or pencil from the paper.

An euler circuit is simiar to an euler path exept you must start and end in the same place you started.

What is the difference between an Euler circuit and an Euler path?

The difference between an Euler circuit and an Euler path is in the execution of the process. The Euler path will begin and end at varied vertices while the Euler circuit uses all the edges of the graph at once.


Can a graph have an Euler circuit but not a Hamiltonian circuit?

Yes. An example: _____A---------B________ A connected directly to B and D by one path. _____|_______/|\________ B connected directly to A and E by one path, and to C by two paths. _____|______/_|_\_______ _____|_____/___\_|______ _____|__E/_____\|______ E connected directly to B and D by one path. _____|____\_____C______ C connected directly to B and D by two paths. _____|_____\____|\_____ _____|______\___|__\___ _____|_______\__|__/___ _____|________\_|_/____ _____|_________\|/_____ _____-------------D_____ D connected directly to A and E by one path, and to C by two paths. There is an Euler circuit: ABCDEBCDA But a Hamiltonian circuit is impossible: as part of a circuit A can only be reached by the path BAD, but once BAD has been traversed it is impossible to get to both C and E without returning to B or D first. However there is a Hamiltonian Path: ABCDE.


What is the difference between a Hamiltonian circuit and a Euler circuit?

In an Euler circuit we go through the whole circuit without picking the pencil up. In doing so, the edges can never be repeated but vertices may repeat. In a Hamiltonian circuit the vertices and edges both can not repeat. So Avery Hamiltonain circuit is also Eulerian but it is not necessary that every euler is also Hamiltonian.

What is a path formed by the conductors for electrons?

That path might be called a circuit. If the path is complete, it's a closed circuit.
