A classical result of Dirac says that every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $\frac{n}{2}$ contains a Hamilton cycle. A `discrepancy' version of Dirac's theorem was shown by Balogh--Csaba--Jing--Pluh\'ar,…
In this paper, we study discrepancy questions for spanning subgraphs of $k$-uniform hypergraphs. Our main result is that, for any integers $k \ge 3$ and $r \ge 2$, any $r$-colouring of the edges of a $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $G$…
Chen, Faudree, Gould, Jacobson, and Lesniak determined the minimum degree threshold for which a balanced $k$-partite graph has a Hamiltonian cycle. We give an asymptotically tight minimum degree condition for Hamiltonian cycles in arbitrary…
Nikiforov conjectured that for a given integer $k\ge 2$, any graph $G$ of sufficiently large order $n$ with spectral radius $\mu(G)\geq \mu(S_{n,k})$ (or $\mu(G)\ge \mu(S_{n,k}^+))$ contains $C_{2k+1}$ or $C_{2k+2}$(or $C_{2k+2}$), unless…
A graph of order $n$ is said to be $k$-\emph{factor-critical} $(0\le k<n)$ if the removal of any $k$ vertices results in a graph with a perfect matching. A $k$-factor-critical graph $G$ is \emph{minimal} if $G-e$ is not $k$-factor-critical…
We present a general method for counting and packing Hamilton cycles in dense graphs and oriented graphs, based on permanent estimates. We utilize this approach to prove several extremal results. In particular, we show that every nearly…
A well-known theorem of Erd\H{o}s and Gallai asserts that a graph with no path of length $k$ contains at most $\frac{1}{2}(k-1)n$ edges. Recently Gy\H{o}ri, Katona and Lemons gave an extension of this result to hypergraphs by determining…
In this paper, we make progress on a question related to one of Galvin that has attracted substantial attention recently. The question is that of determining among all graphs $G$ with $n$ vertices and $\Delta(G)\leq r$, which has the most…
A graph $G$ is called an $L_1$-graph if $d(u)+d(v)\ge|N(u)\cup N(v)\cup N(w)|-1$ for every triple of vertices $u,v,w$ where $u$ and $v$ are at distance 2 and $w\in N(u)\cap N(v)$. Asratian et al. (1996) proved that all finite connected…
A graph is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle passing through every vertex exactly once. A celebrated theorem of Dirac from 1952 asserts that every graph on $n\ge 3$ vertices with minimum degree at least $n/2$ is Hamiltonian. We refer to…
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 $G_{k,n}$ 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)|…
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 present eighteen exact analogs of six well-known fundamental Theorems (due to Dirac, Nash-Williams and Jung) in hamiltonian graph theory providing alternative compositions of graph invariants. In Theorems 1-3 we give three lower bounds…
Let $G$ be a $k$-connected graph on $n$ vertices. Hippchen's Conjecture states that two longest paths in $G$ share at least $k$ vertices. Guti\'errez recently proved the conjecture when $k\leq 4$ or $k\geq \frac{n-2}{3}$. We improve upon…
There has been extensive research on cycle lengths in graphs with large minimum degree. In this paper, we obtain several new and tight results in this area. Let $G$ be a graph with minimum degree at least $k+1$. We prove that if $G$ is…
For integers $k \geq 3$ and $r\geq 2$, we show that for every $\alpha> 0$, there exists $\varepsilon > 0$ such that the union of $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices with minimum codegree at least $\alpha n$ and a binomial random…
A sequence of nonnegative integers \pi =(d_1,d_2,...,d_n) is graphic if there is a (simple) graph G with degree sequence \pi. In this case, G is said to realize or be a realization of \pi. Degree sequence results in the literature generally…
The closure of a graph $G$ is the graph $G^*$ obtained from $G$ by repeatedly adding edges between pairs of non-adjacent vertices whose degree sum is at least $n$, where $n$ is the number of vertices of $G$. The well-known Closure Lemma…
Suppose $G$ is a $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices such that every $(k-1)$-subset $S$ of $V(G)$ belongs to at least $\delta n$ edges, where $\delta> 1/2$. Let $\Psi(G)$ denote the number of tight Hamilton cycles in $G$, that is, cyclic…
