The author settles a question of Haggkvist and Scott by proving that, for \(k \geq 2\), a bipartite graph of girth \(g\) and average degree at least \(4k\) contains cycles of \((g/2 - 1)k\) consecutive even lengths. He also gives a short proof of Bondy and Simonovits' theorem that a graph of order \(n\) and size at least \(8(k-1)n^{1+1/k}\) has a \(2k\)-cycle.
