Let $\{G_i\}$ be the random graph process: starting with an empty graph $G_0$ with $n$ vertices, in every step $i \geq 1$ the graph $G_i$ is formed by taking an edge chosen uniformly at random among the non-existing ones and adding it to…

A Hamilton cycle in a directed graph $G$ is a cycle that passes through every vertex of $G$. A Hamiltonian decomposition of $G$ is a partition of its edge set into disjoint Hamilton cycles. In the late $60$s Kelly conjectured that every…

A long-standing conjecture of Kelly states that every regular tournament on n vertices can be decomposed into (n-1)/2 edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles. We prove this conjecture for large n. In fact, we prove a far more general result, based on…

One of the most famous results in the theory of random graphs establishes that the threshold for Hamiltonicity in the Erdos-Renyi random graph G_{n,p} is around p ~ (log n + log log n) / n. Much research has been done to extend this to…

We give an algorithmic proof for the existence of tight Hamilton cycles in a random r-uniform hypergraph with edge probability p=n^{-1+eps} for every eps>0. This partly answers a question of Dudek and Frieze [Random Structures Algorithms],…

Let $X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n$ be chosen independently and uniformly at random from the unit $d$-dimensional cube $[0,1]^d$. Let $r$ be given and let $\cal X=\{X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n\}$. The random geometric graph $G=G_{\cal X,r}$ has vertex set…

We prove that random hypergraphs are asymptotically almost surely resiliently Hamiltonian. Specifically, for any $\gamma>0$ and $k\ge3$, we show that asymptotically almost surely, every subgraph of the binomial random $k$-uniform hypergraph…

Consider the random process that starts with $n$ vertices and no edges, where the edges of $K_n$ are added one at a time in a uniformly chosen random order $e_1, e_2,\ldots, e_{\binom{n}{2}}$. Let $T$ be the earliest time at which $e_1$…

Let $G$ be a graph obtained as the union of some $n$-vertex graph $H_n$ with minimum degree $\delta(H_n)\geq\alpha n$ and a $d$-dimensional random geometric graph $G^d(n,r)$. We investigate under which conditions for $r$ the graph $G$ will…

The problem of packing Hamilton cycles in random and pseudorandom graphs has been studied extensively. In this paper, we look at the dual question of covering all edges of a graph by Hamilton cycles and prove that if a graph with maximum…

Let $\mathcal{G}(k)$ denote the set of connected $k$-regular graphs $G$, $k\geq2$, where the number of vertices at distance 2 from any vertex in $G$ does not exceed $k$. Asratian (2006) showed (using other terminology) that a graph…

In a graph $G$, a subset of vertices $S \subseteq V(G)$ is said to be cyclable if there is a cycle containing the vertices in some order. $G$ is said to be $k$-cyclable if any subset of $k \geq 2$ vertices is cyclable. If any $k$…

We consider a random geometric graph process where random points $(X_i)_{i \ge 1}$ are embedded consecutively in the $d$-dimensional unit torus $\mathbb{T}^d$, and every two points at distance at most $r$ form an edge. As $r\to 0$, we…

A Hamilton cycle in a digraph is a cycle that passes through all the vertices, where all the arcs are oriented in the same direction. The problem of finding Hamilton cycles in directed graphs is well studied and is known to be hard. One of…

In 1980, Jackson proved that every 2-connected $k$-regular graph with at most $3k$ vertices is Hamiltonian. This result has been extended in several papers. In this note, we determine the minimum number of vertices in a connected…

In light of Lov\'{a}sz's longstanding question on the existence of Hamilton paths in vertex-transitive graphs, this paper considers a natural variant: what if vertex-transitivity is relaxed, yet a high degree of symmetry--specifically…

Following Penrose, we introduce a family of graph functions defined in terms of contractions of certain products of symmetric tensors along the edges of a graph. Special cases of these functions enumerate edge colorings and cycles of…

Given a family of graphs $G_1,\dots,G_{n}$ on the same vertex set $[n]$, a rainbow Hamilton cycle is a Hamilton cycle on $[n]$ such that each $G_c$ contributes exactly one edge. We prove that if $G_1,\dots,G_{n}$ are independent samples of…

In this paper we prove a sufficient condition for the existence of a Hamilton cycle, which is applicable to a wide variety of graphs, including relatively sparse graphs. In contrast to previous criteria, ours is based on only two…

We study Hamiltonicity in the union of an $n$-vertex graph $H$ with high minimum degree and a binomial random graph on the same vertex set. In particular, we consider the case when $H$ has minimum degree close to $n/2$. We determine the…
