We show that the threshold for the random graph $G_{n,p}$ to contain the square of a Hamilton cycle is $p=\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}$. This improves the previous results of K\"uhn and Osthus and also Nenadov and \v{S}kori\'c. In addition we…

We revisit results obtained in [F. Harary, U. Peled, Hamiltonian threshold graphs, Discrete Appl.~Math., 16 (1987), 11--15], where several necessary and necessary and sufficient conditions for a connected threshold graph to be Hamiltonian…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n\geq 3$ vertices, claw the bipartite graph $K_{1,3}$, and $Z_i$ the graph obtained from a triangle by attaching a path of length $i$ to its one vertex. $G$ is called 1-heavy if at least one end vertex of each induced…

We present progress on three old conjectures about longest paths and cycles in graphs. The first pair of conjectures, due to Lov\'{a}sz from 1969 and Thomassen from 1978, respectively, states that all connected vertex-transitive graphs…

A graph is \emph{hamiltonian-connected} if every pair of vertices can be connected by a hamiltonian path, and it is \emph{hamiltonian} if it contains a hamiltonian cycle. We construct families of non-hamiltonian graphs for which the ratio…

We show that if $n$ is odd and $p \ge C \log n / n$, then with high probability Hamilton cycles in $G(n,p)$ span its cycle space. More generally, we show this holds for a class of graphs satisfying certain natural pseudorandom properties.…

Let $H_r(n,p)$ denote the maximum number of Hamiltonian cycles in an $n$-vertex $r$-graph with density $p \in (0,1)$. The expected number of Hamiltonian cycles in the random $r$-graph model $G_r(n,p)$ is $E(n,p)=p^n(n-1)!/2$ and in the…

Let $X_1,..., X_n$ be independent, uniformly random points from $[0,1]^2$. We prove that if we add edges between these points one by one by order of increasing edge length then, with probability tending to 1 as the number of points $n$…

A graph is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle which passes through every vertex of the graph exactly once. A classical theorem of Dirac from 1952 asserts that every graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $n/2$ is Hamiltonian. We…

Finding Hamitonian Cycles in square grid graphs is a well studied and important questions. More recent work has extended these results to triangular and hexagonal grids, as well as further restricted versions. In this paper, we examine a…

A tight Hamilton cycle in a $k$-uniform hypergraph ($k$-graph) $G$ is a cyclic ordering of the vertices of $G$ such that every set of $k$ consecutive vertices in the ordering forms an edge. R\"{o}dl, Ruci\'{n}ski, and Szemer\'{e}di proved…

In this paper, we study the notion of chordality and cycles in hypergraphs from a commutative algebraic point of view. The corresponding concept of chordality in commutative algebra is having a linear resolution. However, there is no…

A graph on n vertices is called pancyclic if it contains a cycle of length l for all 3 \le l \le n. In 1972, Erdos proved that if G is a Hamiltonian graph on n > 4k^4 vertices with independence number k, then G is pancyclic. He then…

A classical theorem of Ghouila-Houri from 1960 asserts that every directed graph on $n$ vertices with minimum out-degree and in-degree at least $n/2$ contains a directed Hamilton cycle. In this paper we extend this theorem to a random…

For positive integers $r > \ell$, an $r$-uniform hypergraph is called an $\ell$-cycle if there exists a cyclic ordering of its vertices such that each of its edges consists of $r$ consecutive vertices, and such that every pair of…

The Harary reconstruction conjecture states that any graph with more than four edges can be uniquely reconstructed from its set of maximal edge-deleted subgraphs. In 1977, M\"uller verified the conjecture for graphs with $n$ vertices and $n…

A famous conjecture of Lov\'asz states that every connected vertex-transitive graph contains a Hamilton path. In this article we confirm the conjecture in the case that the graph is dense and sufficiently large. In fact, we show that such…

A graph $G$ is said to be Hamiltonian if it contains a spanning cycle. In this work, we investigate the Hamiltonian completeness of certain classes of caterpillar graphs, which are trees with a central path to which all other vertices are…

In 1960, Ghouila-Houri extended Dirac's theorem to directed graphs by proving that if D is a directed graph on n vertices with minimum out-degree and in-degree at least n/2 (i.e. minimum semi-degree at least n/2), then D contains a directed…

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…
