A non-planar graph is almost-planar if either deleting or contracting any edge makes it planar. A graph with $n$ vertices is pancyclic if it contains a cycle of every length from $3$ to $n$, and it is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle 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…

In this paper we present the first deterministic polynomial time algorithm for determining the existence of a Hamiltonian cycle and finding a Hamiltonian cycle in general graphs. Our algorithm can also solve the Hamiltonian path problem in…

Let $\mu(G)$ denote the minimum number of edges whose addition to $G$ results in a Hamiltonian graph, and let $\hat{\mu}(G)$ denote the minimum number of edges whose addition to $G$ results in a pancyclic graph. We study the distributions…

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…

A Berge cycle of length $\ell$ in a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is a sequence of alternating vertices and edges $v_0e_0v_1e_1...v_\ell e_\ell v_0$ such that $\{v_i,v_{i+1}\}\subseteq e_i$ for all $i$, with indices taken modulo $\ell$. For $n$…

This paper presents sufficient conditions for Hamiltonian paths and cycles in graphs. Letting $\lambda\left( G\right) $ denote the spectral radius of the adjacency matrix of a graph $G,$ the main results of the paper are: (1) Let $k\geq1,$…

A graph is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle which passes through every vertex of the graph exactly once. A classical theorem of Dirac from 1952 asserts that every graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $n/2$ is Hamiltonian. We…

In 1952, Dirac proved the following theorem about long cycles in graphs with large minimum vertex degrees: Every $n$-vertex $2$-connected graph $G$ with minimum vertex degree $\delta\geq 2$ contains a cycle with at least $\min\{2\delta,n\}$…

In an $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices a tight Hamilton cycle consists of $n$ edges such that there exists a cyclic ordering of the vertices where the edges correspond to consecutive segments of $r$ vertices. We provide a first…

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…

We show that every $(n,d,\lambda)$-graph contains a Hamilton cycle for sufficiently large $n$, assuming that $d\geq \log^{6}n$ and $\lambda\leq cd$, where $c=\frac{1}{70000}$. This significantly improves a recent result of Glock, Correia…

A cornerstone of extremal graph theory due to Erd\H{o}s and Stone states that the edge density which guarantees a fixed graph $F$ as subgraph also asymptotically guarantees a blow-up of $F$ as subgraph. It is natural to ask whether this…

We consider the random graph $G_{n, {\bf d}}$ chosen uniformly at random from the set of all graphs with a given sparse degree sequence ${\bf d}$. We assume ${\bf d}$ has minimum degree at least 4, at most a power law tail, and place one…

The semi-random graph process is an adaptive random graph process in which an online algorithm is initially presented an empty graph on $n$ vertices. In each round, a vertex $u$ is presented to the algorithm independently and uniformly at…

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 $P$,…

Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with $n\ge 3$. A classic result of Dirac from 1952 asserts that $G$ is hamiltonian if $\delta(G)\ge n/2$. Dirac's theorem is one of the most influential results in the study of hamiltonicity and by now there…

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…

A graph $G$ is said to be $\mathcal H(n,\Delta)$-universal if it contains every graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$. It is known that for any $\varepsilon > 0$ and any natural number $\Delta$ there exists $c > 0$ such…

We consider the geometric random (GR) graph on the $d-$dimensional torus with the $L_\sigma$ distance measure ($1 \leq \sigma \leq \infty$). Our main result is an exact characterization of the probability that a particular labeled cycle…
