We survey some recent results on long-standing conjectures regarding Hamilton cycles in directed graphs, oriented graphs and tournaments. We also combine some of these to prove the following approximate result towards Kelly's conjecture on…
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…
A Hamilton cycle is a cycle containing every vertex of a graph. A graph is called Hamiltonian if it contains a Hamilton cycle. The Hamilton cycle problem is to find the sufficient and necessary condition that a graph is Hamiltonian. In this…
This paper shows NP-completeness for finding Hamiltonian cycles in induced subgraphs of the dual graphs of semi-regular tessilations. It also shows NP-hardness for a new, wide class of graphs called augmented square grids. This work follows…
In 2007, Arkin et al. initiated a systematic study of the complexity of the Hamiltonian cycle problem on square, triangular, or hexagonal grid graphs, restricted to polygonal, thin, superthin, degree-bounded, or solid grid graphs. They…
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…
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…
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…
We study conditions under which a given hypergraph is randomly robust Hamiltonian, which means that a random sparsification of the host graph contains a Hamilton cycle with high probability. Our main contribution provides nearly optimal…
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…
We provide an annotated bibliography for the study of Hamilton cycles in random graphs and hypergraphs.
We study the powers of Hamiltonian cycles in randomly augmented Dirac graphs, that is, $n$-vertex graphs $G$ with minimum degree at least $(1/2+\varepsilon)n$ to which some random edges are added. For any Dirac graph and every integer…
Let H be a 3-uniform hypergraph with N vertices. A tight Hamilton cycle C \subset H is a collection of N edges for which there is an ordering of the vertices v_1, ..., v_N such that every triple of consecutive vertices {v_i, v_{i+1},…
We study Hamiltonicity in random subgraphs of the hypercube $\mathcal{Q}^n$. Our first main theorem is an optimal hitting time result. Consider the random process which includes the edges of $\mathcal{Q}^n$ according to a uniformly chosen…
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.…
In his seminal 1976 paper, P\'osa showed that for all $p\geq C\log n/n$, the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ is with high probability Hamiltonian. This leads to the following natural questions, which have been extensively studied: How well…
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 survey recent advances in the theory of graph and hypergraph decompositions, with a focus on extremal results involving minimum degree conditions. We also collect a number of intriguing open problems, and formulate new ones.
Motivated by a relaxed notion of the celebrated Hamiltonian cycle, this paper investigates its variant, parity Hamiltonian cycle (PHC): A PHC of a graph is a closed walk which visits every vertex an odd number of times, where we remark that…
We introduce a new setting of algorithmic problems in random graphs, studying the minimum number of queries one needs to ask about the adjacency between pairs of vertices of ${\mathcal G}(n,p)$ in order to typically find a subgraph…
