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 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…

We prove that every $3$-graph $H$ on $n$ vertices with minimum codegree $\delta_2(H) \geq 7n/9 + o(n)$ contains the square of a tight Hamilton cycle. This strengthens a theorem of Bedenknecht and Reiher that $\delta_2(H) \geq 4n/5 + o(n)$…

We say that a Hamilton cycle $C=(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ in a graph $G$ is $k$-symmetric, if the mapping $x_i\mapsto x_{i+n/k}$ for all $i=1,\ldots,n$, where indices are considered modulo $n$, is an automorphism of $G$. In other words, if we lay…

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…

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 Hamiltonian cycle of a graph is a closed path which visits each of the vertices once and only once. In this article, Hamiltonian cycles on planar random lattices are considered. The generating function for the number of Hamiltonian cycles…

A covering of a digraph $D$ by Hamilton cycles is a collection of directed Hamilton cycles (not necessarily edge-disjoint) that together cover all the edges of $D$. We prove that for $1/2 \geq p\geq \frac{\log^{20} n}{n}$, the random…

This MSci thesis surveys results in extremal graph theory, in particular relating to Hamilton cycles. Szem\'eredi's Regularity Lemma plays a central role. We also investigate the robust outexpansion property for digraphs. Kelly showed that…

Let $k,a,b$ be positive integers with $a+b=k$. A $k$-uniform hypergraph is called an $(a,b)$-cycle if there is a partition $(A_0,B_0,A_1,B_1,\ldots,A_{t-1},B_{t-1})$ of the vertex set with $|A_i|=a$, $|B_i|=b$ such that $A_i\cup B_i$ and…

Let $G_{k,n}$ be the $n$-balanced $k$-partite graph, whose vertex set can be partitioned into $k$ parts, each has $n$ vertices. In this paper, we prove that if $k \geq 2,n \geq 1$, for the edge set $E(G)$ of $G_{k,n}$ $$|E(G)|…

After long-term efforts, the Hamilton path (cycle) problem for connected vertex-transitive graphs of order $pq$ (where $p$ and $q$ are primes) was finally resolved in 2021, see [10]. Fifteen years ago, mathematicians began addressing this…

A Hamilton decomposition of a graph is a partitioning of its edge set into disjoint spanning cycles. The existence of such decompositions is known for all hypercubes of even dimension $2n$. We give a decomposition for the case $n = 2^a3^b$…

For all integers $k$ with $k\geq 2$, if $G$ is a balanced $k$-partite graph on $n\geq 3$ vertices with minimum degree at least \[…

We show that, for a natural notion of quasirandomness in $k$-uniform hypergraphs, any quasirandom $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices with constant edge density and minimum vertex degree $\Omega(n^{k-1})$ contains a loose Hamilton cycle.…

In light of Lov\'{a}sz's longstanding question on the existence of Hamilton paths in vertex-transitive graphs, this paper considers a natural variant: what if vertex-transitivity is relaxed, yet a high degree of symmetry--specifically…

The classical Dirac theorem asserts that every graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge \lceil n/2 \rceil$ is Hamiltonian. The lower bound of $\lceil n/2 \rceil$ on the minimum degree of a graph is tight. In this paper,…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a given finite (possibly empty) family of connected graphs, each containing a cycle, and let $G$ be an arbitrary finite $\mathcal{H}$-free graph with minimum degree at least $k$. For $p \in [0,1]$, we form a $p$-random…

Supergrid graphs contain grid graphs and triangular grid graphs as their subgraphs. The Hamiltonian cycle and path problems for general supergrid graphs were known to be NP-complete. A graph is called Hamiltonian if it contains a…

Let G (V, E) be a simple graph with vertex set V and edge set E. A generalized cycle is a subgraph such that any vertex degree is even. A simple cycle (briefly in a cycle) is a connected subgraph such that every vertex has degree 2. A basis…
