We use a randomised embedding method to prove that for all \alpha>0 any sufficiently large oriented graph G with minimum in-degree and out-degree \delta^+(G),\delta^-(G)\geq (3/8+\alpha)|G| contains every possible orientation of a Hamilton…
A graph G on n vertices is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle of length n and pancyclic if it contains cycles of length $\ell$ for all $3 \le \ell \le n$. Write $\alpha(G)$ for the independence number of $G$, i.e. the size of the largest…
We investigate the genus $g(n,m)$ of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,m)$, providing a thorough description of how this relates to the function $m=m(n)$, and finding that there is different behaviour depending on which `region' $m$…
A seminal result by Koml\'os, Sark\"ozy, and Szemer\'edi states that if a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices has minimum degree at least $kn/(k + 1)$, for some $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and $n$ sufficiently large, then it contains the $k$-th power of a…
Let $D$ be a digraph on $p\geq 5$ vertices with minimum degree at least $p-1$ and with minimum semi-degree at least $p/2-1$. For $D$ (unless some extremal cases) we present a detailed proof of the following results [12]: (i) $D$ contains…
We present a matching and LP based heuristic algorithm that decides graph non-Hamiltonicity. Each of the $n!$ Hamilton cycles in a complete directed graph on $n+1$ vertices corresponds with each of the $n!$ $n$-permutation matrices $P$,…
We show that with high probability we can build a Hamilton cycle after at most $1.85 n$ rounds in a particular semi-random model. In this model, in one round, we are given a {uniform random} $v\in[n]$ and then we can add an {arbitrary} edge…
Given graphs $G_1,\ldots,G_s$ all on a common vertex set and a graph $H$ with $e(H) = s$, a copy of $H$ is \emph{transversal} or \emph{rainbow} if it contains one edge from each $G_i$. We establish a stability result for transversal…
Every graph of size $q$ (the number of edges) and minimum degree $\delta$ is hamiltonian if $q\le\delta^2+\delta-1$. The result is sharp.
We show that every $3$-uniform hypergraph $H=(V,E)$ with $|V(H)|=n$ and minimum pair degree at least $(4/5+o(1))n$ contains a squared Hamiltonian cycle. This may be regarded as a first step towards a hypergraph version of the P\'osa-Seymour…
It is proved that if $G$ is a $t$-tough graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $\delta$ with $t>1$ then either $G$ has a cycle of length at least $\min\{n,2\delta+4\}$ or $G$ is the Petersen graph.
The paper is concerned with directed versions of Posa's theorem and Chvatal's theorem on Hamilton cycles in graphs. We show that for each a>0, every digraph G of sufficiently large order n whose outdegree and indegree sequences d_1^+ \leq…
We study the Hamilton cycle problem with input a random graph G=G(n,p) in two settings. In the first one, G is given to us in the form of randomly ordered adjacency lists while in the second one we are given the adjacency matrix of G. In…
For the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph G(n,p), we give a precise asymptotic formula for the size of a largest vertex subset in G(n,p) that induces a subgraph with average degree at most t, provided that p = p(n) is not too small and t =…
For $k \geq 4$, we establish that $p = (e/n)^{1/k}$ is a sharp threshold for the existence of the $k$-th power $H$ of a Hamilton cycle in the binomial random graph model. Our proof builds upon an approach by Riordan based on the second…
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…
Four basic Dirac-type sufficient conditions for a graph $G$ to be hamiltonian are known involving order $n$, minimum degree $\delta$, connectivity $\kappa$ and independence number $\alpha$ of $G$: (1) $\delta \geq n/2$ (Dirac); (2) $\kappa…
For a simple graph $G$, let $n$ and $m$ denote the number of vertices and edges in $G$, respectively. The Erd\H{o}s-Gallai theorem for paths states that in a simple $P_k$-free graph, $m \leq \frac{n(k-1)}{2}$, where $P_k$ denotes a path…
What minimum degree of a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices guarantees that the union of $G$ and a random $2$-factor (or permutation) is with high probability Hamiltonian? Gir\~ao and Espuny D{\'\i}az showed that the answer lies in the interval…
Let $\bk=(k_1,...,k_n)$ be a sequence of $n$ integers. For an increasing monotone graph property $\mP$ we say that a base graph $G=([n],E)$ is \emph{$\bk$-resilient} with respect to $\mP$ if for every subgraph $H\subseteq G$ such that…
