Let $c$ be an edge-colouring of a graph $G$ such that for every vertex $v$ there are at least $d \ge 2$ different colours on edges incident to $v$. We prove that $G$ contains a properly coloured path of length 2d or a properly coloured…
We consider problems about packing and counting Hamilton $\ell$-cycles in hypergraphs of large minimum degree. Given a hypergraph $\mathcal H$, for a $d$-subset $A\subseteq V(\mathcal H)$, we denote by $d_{\mathcal H}(A)$ the number of…
A famous conjecture of P\'osa from 1962 asserts that every graph on $n$ vertices and with minimum degree at least $2n/3$ contains the square of a Hamilton cycle. The conjecture was proven for large graphs in 1996 by Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy…
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 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 $\delta_2(H) \geq 4n/5 + o(n)$…
Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits asked the following question: For an integer $r\geq 2$ and a family of non-bipartite graphs $\mathcal{H}$, determine the infimum of $\alpha$ such that any $\mathcal{H}$-free $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at…
In 1999, Jacobson and Lehel conjectured that for $k \geq 3$, every $k$-regular Hamiltonian graph has cycles of at least linearly many different lengths. This was further strengthened by Verstra\"{e}te, who asked whether the regularity can…
In 2003, Bohman, Frieze, and Martin initiated the study of randomly perturbed graphs and digraphs. For digraphs, they showed that for every $\alpha>0$, there exists a constant $C$ such that for every $n$-vertex digraph of minimum…
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…
We show that for $k \geq 2$, there exists a function $f(k) = O(k)$ such that every $k$-connected graph $G$ of order $n \geq f(k)$ with minimum degree at least $\frac{n}{2}$ contains a Hamiltonian cycle $H$ such that $G-E(H)$ is…
We prove that if an $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $3$ contains a Hamiltonian cycle, then it contains another cycle of length $n-o(n)$; this implies, in particular, that a well-known conjecture of Sheehan from 1975 holds…
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…
We study Hamiltonicity in graphs obtained as the union of a deterministic $n$-vertex graph $H$ with linear degrees and a $d$-dimensional random geometric graph $G^d(n,r)$, for any $d\geq1$. We obtain an asymptotically optimal bound on the…
We refine a property of $2$-connected graphs described in the classical paper of Dirac from 1952 and use the refined property to somewhat shorten Dirac's proof of the fact that each $2$-connected $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at…
We study sufficient conditions for Hamiltonian cycles in hypergraphs, and obtain both Tur\'an- and Dirac-type results. While the Tur\'an-type result gives an exact threshold for the appearance of a Hamiltonian cycle in a hypergraph…
Let $K_{n}^{c}$ denote a complete graph on $n$ vertices whose edges are colored in an arbitrary way. Let $\Delta^{\mathrm{mon}} (K_{n}^{c})$ denote the maximum number of edges of the same color incident with a vertex of $K_{n}^{c}$. A…
We study the multicolour discrepancy of spanning trees and Hamilton cycles in graphs. As our main result, we show that under very mild conditions, the $r$-colour spanning-tree discrepancy of a graph $G$ is equal, up to a constant, to the…
In 1952, Dirac proved that every $2$-connected $n$-vertex graph with the minimum degree $k+1$ contains a cycle of length at least $\min\{n, 2(k+1)\}$. Here we obtain a stability version of this result by characterizing those graphs with…
Oriented graph discrepancy problems focus on finding specific subgraphs within a given oriented graph $G$ that contain a significant number of edges in one direction. This concept was first introduced by Gishboliner, Krivelevich, and…
One of the most famous results in the theory of random graphs establishes that the threshold for Hamiltonicity in the Erdos-Renyi random graph G_{n,p} is around p ~ (log n + log log n) / n. Much research has been done to extend this to…
