This paper presents a comprehensive computational approach to verify and inductively construct Hamiltonian paths for the Buratti--Horak--Rosa (BHR) Conjecture. The conjecture posits that for any multiset $L$ of $p-1$ positive integers not…
The conjecture of Peter Horak and Alex Rosa (generalizing that of Marco Buratti) states that a multiset L of v-1 positive integers not exceeding [v/2] is the list of edge-lengths of a suitable Hamiltonian path of the complete graph with…
The conjecture, still widely open, posed by Marco Buratti, Peter Horak and Alex Rosa states that a list $L$ of $v-1$ positive integers not exceeding $\left\lfloor \frac{v}{2}\right\rfloor$ is the list of edge-lengths of a suitable…
Label the vertices of the complete graph $K_v$ with the integers $\{0, 1, \ldots, v-1\}$ and define the {\em length} $\ell$ of the edge between distinct vertices labeled $x$ and $y$ by $\ell(x,y) = \min( |y-x|, v - |y-x| )$. A {\em…
The Buratti-Horak-Rosa Conjecture concerns the possible multisets of edge-labels of a Hamiltonian path in the complete graph with vertex labels $0, 1, \ldots, {v-1}$ under a particular induced edge-labeling. The conjecture has been shown to…
Label the vertices of the complete graph $K_v$ with the integers $\{ 0, 1, \ldots, v-1 \}$ and define the length of the edge between $x$ and $y$ to be $\min( |x-y| , v - |x-y| )$. Let $L$ be a multiset of size $v-1$ with underlying set…
We propose a "Coprime Buratti-Horak-Rosa (BHR) Conjecture": If $L$ is a multiset of size $v-1$ with support contained in $\{1, 2, \ldots, \lfloor v/2 \rfloor\}$ such that $\gcd(v,x) = 1$ for all $x \in L$, then $L$ is realizable. This is a…
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…
Marco Buratti's conjecture states that if $p$ is a prime and $L$ a multiset containing $p-1$ non-zero elements from the integers modulo $p$, then there exists a Hamiltonian path in the complete graph of order $p$ with edge lengths in $L$.…
A Hamiltonian path in the complete graph $K_v$ whose vertices are labeled with the integers $0,1,\ldots,v-1$ is a linear realization for the multiset $L$ of the linear edge-lengths (given by $|x-y|$ for the edge between vertices $x$ and…
When solving the Hamiltonian path problem it seems natural to be given additional precedence constraints for the order in which the vertices are visited. For example one could decide whether a Hamiltonian path exists for a fixed starting…
In 1980, Paul Erd\H{o}s posed the following problem: For every positive integer $n,$ determine a nonhamiltonian graph of order $n$ having the maximum number of Hamilton paths. We solve the more general problem of determining the…
Dirac (1952) proved that every connected graph of order $n>2k+1$ with minimum degree more than $k$ contains a path of length at least $2k+1$. Erd\H{o}s and Gallai (1959) showed that every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with average degree more than…
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…
For a connected graph, a path containing all vertices is known as \emph{Hamiltonian path}. For general graphs, there is no known necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of Hamiltonian paths and the complexity of finding a…
The Hamiltonian cycle problem is to decide whether a given graph has a Hamiltonian cycle. Bertossi and Bonuccelli (1986, Information Processing Letters, 23, 195-200) proved that the Hamiltonian Cycle Problem is NP-Complete even for…
Let $H$ be an $n$-vertex 3-uniform hypergraph such that every pair of vertices is in at least $n/3+o(n)$ edges. We show that $H$ contains two vertex-disjoint tight paths whose union covers the vertex set of $H$. The quantity two here is…
If the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ are totally ordered, a simple path whose edges are in ascending order is called increasing. The worst-case length of the longest increasing path has remained an open problem for several decades, with…
The natural infinite analogue of a (finite) Hamilton cycle is a two-way-infinite Hamilton path (connected spanning 2-valent subgraph). Although it is known that every connected $2k$-valent infinite circulant graph has a two-way-infinite…
A famous result by R\"odl, Ruci\'nski, and Szemer\'edi guarantees a (tight) Hamilton cycle in $k$-uniform hypergraphs $H$ on $n$ vertices with minimum $(k-1)$-degree $\delta_{k-1}(H)\geq (1/2+o(1))n$, thereby extending Dirac's result from…
