We prove that for every $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $n_0=n_0(\varepsilon)$ such that every regular oriented graph on $n > n_0$ vertices and degree at least $(1/4 + \varepsilon)n$ has a Hamilton cycle. This establishes an approximate…

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…

Let $\mathcal{G}(n,r,s)$ denote a uniformly random $r$-regular $s$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices, where $s$ is a fixed constant and $r=r(n)$ may grow with $n$. An $\ell$-overlapping Hamilton cycle is a Hamilton cycle in which…

Let $n$ and $r$ be integers with $n-2\ge r\ge 3$. We prove that any $r$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ on $n$ vertices with spectral radius $\lambda(\mathcal{H}) > \binom{n-2}{r-1}$ must contain a Hamiltonian Berge cycle unless…

A Transposition graph $T_n$ is defined as a Cayley graph over the symmetric group $Sym_n$ generated by all transpositions. It is known that the spectrum of $T_n$ consists of integers, but it is not known exactly how these numbers are…

The symmetric group is generated by {\sigma} = (1 2 ... n) and {\tau} = (1 2). We answer an open problem of Nijenhuis and Wilf by constructing a Hamilton path in the directed Cayley graph for all n, and a Hamilton cycle for odd n.

We study Hamilton circuits of the Cayley graphs of the Weyl groupoids of the generalized quantum groups, or the quantum double of the Nichols algebras of diagonal-type, with finite root systems. We prove the existence of a Hamilton circuit…

A consequence of Bertrand's postulate, proved by L. Greenfield and S. Greenfield in 1998, assures that the set of integers $\{1,2,\cdots, 2n\}$ can be partitioned into pairs so that the sum of each pair is a prime number for any positive…

A graph $G$ is called an $[s,t]$-graph if any induced subgraph of $G$ of order $s$ has size at least $t.$ An edge $e$ in a graph $G$ of order $n$ is called pancyclic if for every integer $k$ with $3\le k\le n,$ $e$ lies in a $k$-cycle. We…

A hamiltonian cycle system (HCS, for short) of a graph $\Gamma$ is a partition of the edges of $\Gamma$ into hamiltonian cycles. A HCS is cyclic when it is invariant under a cyclic permutation of all the vertices of $\Gamma$; the existence…

Symmetries of the finite Heisenberg group represent an important tool for the study of deeper structure of finite-dimensional quantum mechanics. As is well known, these symmetries are properly expressed in terms of certain normalizer. This…

In this series of papers, the primary goal is to enumerate Hamiltonian cycles (HC's) on the grid cylinder graphs $P_{m+1}\times C_n$, where $n$ is allowed to grow whilst $m$ is fixed. In Part~I, we studied the so-called non-contractible…
