If $G$ is a more than one tough graph on $n$ vertices with $\delta\ge \frac{n}{2}-a$ for a given $a>0$ and $n$ is large enough then $G$ is hamiltonian.

A graph is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle passing through every vertex. One of the cornerstone results in the theory of random graphs asserts that for edge probability $p \gg \frac{\log n}{n}$, the random graph $G(n,p)$ is…

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…

Two new sufficient conditions for generalized cycles (including Hamilton and dominating cycles as special cases) in an arbitrary k-connected graph (k=1,2,...) are derived, which prove the truth of Bondy's (1980) famous conjecture for some…

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…

We prove a conjecture of Penrose about the standard random geometric graph process, in which n vertices are placed at random on the unit square and edges are sequentially added in increasing order of lengths taken in the l_p norm. We show…

A bicirculant is a regular, $d$-valent graph that admits a semiregular automorphism of order $m$ having two vertex-orbits of size $m$. The vertices of each orbit induce a circulant graph of order $m$ and the remaining edges span a regular…

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…

An oriented graph is an orientation of a simple graph. In 2009, Keevash, K\"{u}hn and Osthus proved that every sufficiently large oriented graph $D$ of order $n$ with $(3n-4)/8$ is Hamiltonian. Later, Kelly, K\"{u}hn and Osthus showed that…

A graph $ G $ is called $ t $-tough if $ \left|S\right|\geq t\cdot w\left(G-S\right)$ for every cutset $ S $ of $G$. Chv\'atal conjectured that there exists a constant $ t_{0} $ such that every $ t_{0} $-tough graph has a hamiltonian cycle.…

Hamiltonian cycles in graphs were first studied in the 1850s. Since then, an impressive amount of research has been dedicated to identifying classes of graphs that allow Hamiltonian cycles, and to related questions. The corresponding…

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…

In this paper, we investigate the well-studied Hamiltonian cycle problem (HCYCLE), and present an interesting dichotomy result on split graphs. T. Akiyama et al. (1980) have shown that HCYCLE is NP-complete in planar bipartite graphs with…

This report provides an overview of theorems and statements related to a conjecture stated by D.W. Barnette in 1969 (which is an open problem in graph theory): Every cubic, bipartite, polyhedral graph contains a Hamilton cycle.

Generalized cycles can be thought of as the extension of form-cycle duality between holomorphic forms and cycles, to meromorphic forms and generalized cycles. They appeared as an ubiquitous tool in the study of spectral curves and…
