==In infinite graphs== [[File:Kely graph of F2 clear.svg|thumb|An infinite graph with all vertex degrees equal to four but with no Eulerian line]] In an [[infinite graph]], the corresponding concept to an Eulerian trail or Eulerian cycle is an Eulerian line, a doubly-infinite trail that covers all of the edges of the graph. It is not sufficient for the existence of such a trail that the graph be connected and that all vertex degrees be even; for instance, the infinite [[Cayley graph]] shown, with all vertex degrees equal to four, has no Eulerian line. The infinite graphs that contain Eulerian lines were characterized by {{harvtxt|Erdős|Grünwald|Weiszfeld|1936}}. For an infinite graph or multigraph {{mvar|G}} to have an Eulerian line, it is necessary and sufficient that all of the following conditions be met:<ref>{{citation | last = Komjáth | first = Peter | author-link = Péter Komjáth | contribution = Erdős's work on infinite graphs | contribution-url = https://books.google.com/books?id=7_zFBAAAQBAJ&pg=PA325 | doi = 10.1007/978-3-642-39286-3_11 | mr = 3203602 | pages = 325–345 | publisher = János Bolyai Math.
