We prove that every $n$-vertex tournament has at most $n\left(\frac{n-1}{2}\right)^k$ walks of length $k$.

We show that for each \alpha>0 every sufficiently large oriented graph G with \delta^+(G),\delta^-(G)\ge 3|G|/8+ \alpha |G| contains a Hamilton cycle. This gives an approximate solution to a problem of Thomassen. In fact, we prove the…

Let $n$ be sufficiently large and suppose that $G$ is a digraph on $n$ vertices where every vertex has in- and outdegree at least $n/2$. We show that $G$ contains every orientation of a Hamilton cycle except, possibly, the antidirected one.…

We conjecture that every oriented graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $\delta ^+ (G) , \delta ^- (G) \geq 5n/12$ contains the square of a Hamilton cycle. We also give a conjectural bound on the minimum semidegree which ensures a perfect packing…

We show that every sufficiently large regular tournament can almost completely be decomposed into edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles. More precisely, for each \eta>0 every regular tournament G of sufficiently large order n contains at least…

We find an exact formula for the number of directed 5-cycles in a tournament in terms of its edge score sequence. We use this formula to find both upper and lower bounds on the number of 5-cycles in any $n$-tournament. In particular, we…

The vertex set of the kth cartesian power of a directed cycle of length m can be naturally identified with the set of k-tuples of integers modulo m. For any two vertices v and w of this graph, it is easy to see that if there is a…

We enumerate certain geometric equivalence classes of subgraphs induced by Hamiltonian paths and cycles in complete graphs. Said classes are orbits under the action of certain direct products of dihedral and cyclic groups on sets of strings…

Gishboliner, Krivelevich, and Michaeli (2023) conjectured the following generalization of Dirac's theorem: If the minimum degree $\delta$ of an $n$-vertex oriented graph $G$ is greater or equal to $n/2$, then $G$ has a Hamilton oriented…

A Hamilton cycle in a directed graph $G$ is a cycle that passes through every vertex of $G$. A Hamiltonian decomposition of $G$ is a partition of its edge set into disjoint Hamilton cycles. In the late $60$s Kelly conjectured that every…

Thomassen conjectured that there is a function $f(k)$ such that every strongly $f(k)$-connected tournament contains $k$ edge-disjoint Hamiltonian cycles. This conjecture was recently proved by K\"uhn, Lapinskas, Osthus, and Patel who showed…

A square of a path on $k$ vertices is a directed path $x_1\ldots x_k$, where $x_i$ is directed to $x_{i+2}$, for every $i\in \{1,\ldots, k-1\}$. Recently, Yuster showed that any tournament on $n$ vertices contains a square of a path of…

In this note we show that every tournament on $n$ vertices contains the $k$-th power of a directed path of length $n/2^{6k+7}$, which improves upon the recent bound of Scott and Kor\'{a}ndi of $n/2^{2^{3k}}$. By doing so, we get an inverse…

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…

Cohen et al. conjectured that for every oriented cycle $C$ there exist an integer $f(C)$ such that every strong $f(C)$-chromatic digraph contains a subdivision of $C$. El Joubbeh confirmed this conjecture for Hamiltonian digraphs. Indeed,…

We prove a strong dichotomy result for countably-infinite oriented graphs; that is, we prove that for all countably-infinite oriented graphs $G$, either (i) there is a countably-infinite tournament $K$ such that $G\not\subseteq K$, or (ii)…

Let $G$ be a fixed graph. Two paths of length $n-1$ on $n$ vertices (Hamiltonian paths) are $G$-different if there is a subgraph isomorphic to $G$ in their union. In this paper we prove that the maximal number of pairwise triangle-different…

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…

We undertake a study on computing Hamiltonian alternating cycles and paths on bicolored point sets. This has been an intensively studied problem, not always with a solution, when the paths and cycles are also required to be plane. In this…

A conjecture of Thomassen from 1982 states that for every k there is an f(k) so that every strongly f(k)-connected tournament contains k edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles. A classical theorem of Camion, that every strongly connected tournament…
