Given an $n$ vertex graph whose edges have colored from one of $r$ colors $C=\{c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_r\}$, we define the Hamilton cycle color profile $hcp(G)$ to be the set of vectors $(m_1,m_2,\ldots,m_r)\in [0,n]^r$ such that there exists a…

We show that every 3-uniform hypergraph with $n$ vertices and minimum vertex degree at least $(5/9+o(1))\binom{n}2$ contains a tight Hamiltonian cycle. Known lower bound constructions show that this degree condition is asymptotically…

Finding general conditions which ensure that a graph is Hamiltonian is a central topic in graph theory. An old and well known conjecture in the area states that any $d$-regular $n$-vertex graph $G$ whose second largest eigenvalue in…

We show that every $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices which does not contain a tight cycle has at most $O(n^{r-1} (\log n)^5)$ edges. This is an improvement on the previously best-known bound, of $n^{r-1} e^{O(\sqrt{\log n})}$, due to…

In this paper we analyze the appearance of a Hamilton cycle in the following random process. The process starts with an empty graph on n labeled vertices. At each round we are presented with K=K(n) edges, chosen uniformly at random from the…

We say that a $k$-uniform hypergraph $C$ is a Hamilton cycle of type $\ell$, for some $1\le \ell \le k$, if there exists a cyclic ordering of the vertices of $C$ such that every edge consists of $k$ consecutive vertices and for every pair…

We show that the threshold for having a rainbow copy of a power of a Hamilton cycle in a randomly edge colored copy of $G_{n,p}$ is within a constant factor of the uncolored threshold. Our proof requires $(1+\varepsilon)$ times the minimum…

It is a longstanding conjecture that every simple drawing of a complete graph on $n \geq 3$ vertices contains a crossing-free Hamiltonian cycle. We strengthen this conjecture to "there exists a crossing-free Hamiltonian path between each…

It is well-known that the $d$-dimensional hypercube contains a Hamilton cycle for $d\ge 2$. In this paper we address the analogous problem in the $3$-uniform cube hypergraph, a $3$-uniform analogue of the hypercube: for simple parity…

We study the 2-offer semirandom 3-uniform hypergraph model on $n$ vertices. At each step, we are presented with 2 uniformly random vertices. We choose any other vertex, thus creating a hyperedge of size 3. We show a strategy that constructs…

Motivated by a question on the maximal number of vertex disjoint Schrijver graphs in the Kneser graph, we investigate the following function, denoted by $f(n,k)$: the maximal number of Hamiltonian cycles on an $n$ element set, such that no…

We give several results showing that different discrete structures typically gain certain spanning substructures (in particular, Hamilton cycles) after a modest random perturbation. First, we prove that adding linearly many random edges to…

Dirac's classical theorem asserts that, for $n \ge 3$, any $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $n/2$ is Hamiltonian. Furthermore, if we additionally assume that such graphs are regular, then, by the breakthrough work of Csaba,…

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…

We study conditions under which a given hypergraph is randomly robust Hamiltonian, which means that a random sparsification of the host graph contains a Hamilton cycle with high probability. Our main contribution provides nearly optimal…

The construction of the random intersection graph model is based on a random family of sets. Such structures, which are derived from intersections of sets, appear in a natural manner in many applications. In this article we study the…

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…

We consider the length of {\em ordered loose paths} in the random $r$-uniform hypergraph $H=H^{(r)}(n, p)$. A ordered loose path is a sequence of edges $E_1,E_2,\ldots,E_\ell$ where $\max\{j\in E_i\}=\min\{j\in E_{i+1}\}$ for $1\leq…
