<12> Originality: This is the first polynomial-time algorithm for counting Euler tours (ETs) on graphs of bounded treewidth.

Significance: For many combinatorial structures, the number of these structures can be directly characterised as some point of the Tutte polynomial. It is well known that any point of the Tutte polynomial can be evaluated in polynomial-time on graphs of bounded treewidth. This paper shows that although ETs do not correspond to any point on the Tutte polynomial, there is also a polynomial-time algorithm to count ETs on bounded treewidth graphs.

Rigour: Full proofs are given in the paper.
