Dirac proved that each $n$-vertex $2$-connected graph with minimum degree at least $k$ contains a cycle of length at least $\min\{2k, n\}$. We consider a hypergraph version of this result. A Berge cycle in a hypergraph is an alternating…

It is proved that if $G$ is a $t$-tough graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $\delta$ with $t>1$ then either $G$ has a cycle of length at least $\min\{n,2\delta+4\}$ or $G$ is the Petersen graph.

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…

For an oriented graph $G$, the oriented discrepancy problem concerns the existence of a spanning subgraph of $G$ with a large imbalance between its forward and backward edge orientations. Freschi and Lo proved the Dirac-type Hamilton cycle…

A Hamilton cycle in a digraph is a cycle that passes through all the vertices, where all the arcs are oriented in the same direction. The problem of finding Hamilton cycles in directed graphs is well studied and is known to be hard. One of…

For a given graph $G$ of minimum degree at least $k$, let $G_p$ denote the random spanning subgraph of $G$ obtained by retaining each edge independently with probability $p=p(k)$. We prove that if $p \ge \frac{\log k + \log \log k +…

Given a family of graphs $G_1,\dots,G_{n}$ on the same vertex set $[n]$, a rainbow Hamilton cycle is a Hamilton cycle on $[n]$ such that each $G_c$ contributes exactly one edge. We prove that if $G_1,\dots,G_{n}$ are independent samples of…

We study the emergence of loose Hamilton cycles in subgraphs of random hypergraphs. Our main result states that the minimum $d$-degree threshold for loose Hamiltonicity relative to the random $k$-uniform hypergraph $H_k(n,p)$ coincides with…

We prove that for every $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $n_0=n_0(\varepsilon)$ such that every regular oriented graph on $n > n_0$ vertices and degree at least $(1/4 + \varepsilon)n$ has a Hamilton cycle. This establishes an approximate…

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…

We prove that any k-uniform hypergraph on n vertices with minimum degree at least n/(2(k-1))+o(n) contains a loose Hamilton cycle. The proof strategy is similar to that used by K\"uhn and Osthus for the 3-uniform case. Though some…

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 w.h.p.\ the random $r$-uniform hypergraph $H_{n,m}$ contains a loose Hamilton cycle, provided $r\geq 3$ and $m\geq \frac{(1+\epsilon)n\log n}{r}$, where $\epsilon$ is an arbitrary positive constant. This is asymptotically best…

Let $G$ and $H$ be hypergraphs on $n$ vertices, and suppose $H$ has large enough minimum degree to necessarily contain a copy of $G$ as a subgraph. We give a general method to randomly embed $G$ into $H$ with good "spread". More precisely,…

We prove that if $G$ is a $k$-partite graph on $n$ vertices in which all of the parts have order at most $n/r$ and every vertex is adjacent to at least a $1-1/r+o(1)$ proportion of the vertices in every other part, then $G$ contains the…

We conjecture that every oriented graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $\delta ^+ (G) , \delta ^- (G) \geq 5n/12$ contains the square of a Hamilton cycle. We also give a conjectural bound on the minimum semidegree which ensures a perfect packing…

If $G$ is a more than one tough graph on $n$ vertices with $\delta\ge \frac{n}{2}-a$ for a given $a>0$ and $n$ is large enough then $G$ is hamiltonian.
