We study the emergence of loose Hamilton cycles in subgraphs of random hypergraphs. Our main result states that the minimum $d$-degree threshold for loose Hamiltonicity relative to the random $k$-uniform hypergraph $H_k(n,p)$ coincides with…
We consider time periodic Hamiltonian on periodic graphs and estimate the number of its quasi-energy eigenvalues on the finite interval.
The Hamiltonian analysis of the self-dual gauge gravity theory is carried out. The resulting canonical structure is equivalent to that of self-dual gravity.
Suppose $G$ is a $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices such that every $(k-1)$-subset $S$ of $V(G)$ belongs to at least $\delta n$ edges, where $\delta> 1/2$. Let $\Psi(G)$ denote the number of tight Hamilton cycles in $G$, that is, cyclic…
It this paper we study a class of perturbed Hamiltonian systems under perturbations of thirteen order in order to detect the number of limit cycles which bifurcate from some periodic orbits of the unperturbed Hamiltonian system. The system…
We show that there exists an infinite family of cubic $2$-connected non-hamiltonian graphs with girth $5$ containing a unique longest cycle.
Wu in 1999 conjectured that if $H$ is a subgraph of the complete graph $K_{2n+1}$ with $n$ edges, then there is a Hamiltonian cycle decomposition of $K_{2n+1}$ such that each edge of $H$ is in a separate Hamiltonian cycle. The conjecture…
A Hamiltonian path (a Hamiltonian cycle) in a graph is a path (a cycle, respectively) that traverses all of its vertices. The problems of deciding their existence in an input graph are well-known to be NP-complete, in fact, they belong to…
We show that an edge-dominating cycle in a $2K_2$-free graph can be found in polynomial time; this implies that every 1/(k-1)-tough $2K_2$-free graph admits a k-walk, and it can be found in polynomial time. For this class of graphs, this…
Suppose that the edges of a complete graph are assigned weights independently at random and we ask for the weight of the minimal-weight spanning tree, or perfect matching, or Hamiltonian cycle. For these and several other common…
We consider the existence of patterned Hamilton cycles in randomly colored random graphs. Given a string $\Pi$ over a set of colors $\{1,2,\ldots,r\}$, we say that a Hamilton cycle is $\Pi$-colored if the pattern repeats at intervals of…
We consider the problem of finding a Hamiltonian path or a Hamiltonian cycle with precedence constraints in the form of a partial order on the vertex set. We show that the path problem is $\mathsf{NP}$-complete for graphs of pathwidth 4…
In this paper we consider the following total functional problem: Given a cubic Hamiltonian graph $G$ and a Hamiltonian cycle $C_0$ of $G$, how can we compute a second Hamiltonian cycle $C_1 \neq C_0$ of $G$? Cedric Smith proved in 1946,…
It is conjectured that every fullerene graph is hamiltonian. Jendrol' and Owens proved [J. Math. Chem. 18 (1995), pp. 83--90] that every fullerene graph on n vertices has a cycle of length at least 4n/5. In this paper, we improve this bound…
We say that a $k$-uniform hypergraph $C$ is a Hamilton cycle of type $\ell$, for some $1\le \ell \le k$, if there exists a cyclic ordering of the vertices of $C$ such that every edge consists of $k$ consecutive vertices and for every pair…
We prove that the number of Hamilton cycles in the random graph G(n,p) is n!p^n(1+o(1))^n a.a.s., provided that p\geq (ln n+ln ln n+\omega(1))/n. Furthermore, we prove the hitting-time version of this statement, showing that in the random…
The existence of Hamiltonian cycles in 1-planar graphs with higher connectivity has attracted considerable attention. Recently, the authors and Dong proved that 4-connected 1-planar chordal graphs are Hamiltonian-connected. In this paper,…
The Hamilton-Waterloo problem with uniform cycle sizes asks for a $2-$ factorization of the complete graph $K_v$ (for odd {\em v}) or $K_v$ minus a $1-$factor (for even {\em v}) where $r$ of the factors consist of $n-$cycles and $s$ of the…
In this paper we study two electrons on a line on the same side of the nucleus which interact with each other by their mean value. We prove that there exists a unique periodic orbit and examine for which charges the two orbits of the…
We study Hamiltonicity in graphs obtained as the union of a deterministic $n$-vertex graph $H$ with linear degrees and a $d$-dimensional random geometric graph $G^d(n,r)$, for any $d\geq1$. We obtain an asymptotically optimal bound on the…
