We study the number of edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles one can guarantee in a sufficiently large graph G on n vertices with minimum degree d = (1/2+a)n. For any constant a > 0, we give an optimal answer in the following sense: let…
We prove that there exists an infinite family of 4-regular 4-connected Hamiltonian graphs with a bounded number of Hamiltonian cycles. We do not know if there exists such a family of 5-regular 5-connected Hamiltonian graphs.
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 \[…
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 $k\geq1,$…
We initiate the study of Hamiltonian cycles up to symmetries of the underlying graph. Our focus lies on the extremal case of Hamiltonian-transitive graphs, i.e., Hamiltonian graphs where, for every pair of Hamiltonian cycles, there is a…
A path (cycle) in a $2$-edge-colored multigraph is alternating if no two consecutive edges have the same color. The problem of determining the existence of alternating Hamiltonian paths and cycles in $2$-edge-colored multigraphs is an…
Finding a Hamilton graph from simple connected graphs is an important problem in discrete mathematics and computer science. Grinberg Theorem is a well-known necessary condition for planar Hamilton graphs. It divides a plane into two parts:…
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…
A cornerstone of extremal graph theory due to Erd\H{o}s and Stone states that the edge density which guarantees a fixed graph $F$ as subgraph also asymptotically guarantees a blow-up of $F$ as subgraph. It is natural to ask whether this…
We consider a robust variant of Dirac-type problems in $k$-uniform hypergraphs. For instance, we prove that if $H$ is a $k$-uniform hypergraph with minimum codegree at least $(1/2 + \gamma )n$, $\gamma >0$, and $n$ is sufficiently large,…
We show that every $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices whose minimum $(k-2)$-degree is at least $(5/9+o(1))n^2/2$ contains a Hamiltonian cycle. A construction due to Han and Zhao shows that this minimum degree condition is optimal. The…
The dominating graph of a graph $H$ has as its vertices all dominating sets of $H$, with an edge between two dominating sets if one can be obtained from the other by the addition or deletion of a single vertex of $H$. In this paper we prove…
We study the Hamiltonian path problem in C-shaped grid graphs, and present the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a Hamiltonian path between two given vertices in these graphs. We also give a linear-time algorithm for…
We consider a game played on an initially empty graph where two players alternate drawing an edge between vertices subject to the condition that no degree can exceed $k$. We show that for $k=3$, either player can avoid a Hamilton cycle, and…
It was shown by Kutnar and \v Sparl in 2009 that every connected vertex-transitive graph of order $6p$, where $p$ is a prime, contains a Hamilton path. In this paper, it will be shown that every such graph contains a Hamilton cycle, except…
We employ the absorbing-path method in order to prove two results regarding the emergence of tight Hamilton cycles in the so called {\em two-path} or {\em cherry}-quasirandom $3$-graphs. Our first result asserts that for any fixed real…
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…
Consider the graph that has as vertices all bitstrings of length $2n+1$ with exactly $n$ or $n+1$ entries equal to 1, and an edge between any two bitstrings that differ in exactly one bit. The well-known middle levels conjecture asserts…
We show that $p=\sqrt{\frac{e}{n}}$ is a sharp threshold for the random graph $G_{n,p}$ to contain the square of a Hamilton cycle. This improves the previous results of K\"uhn and Osthus and also Nenadov and \v{S}kori\'c.
This paper shows NP-completeness for finding Hamiltonian cycles in induced subgraphs of the dual graphs of semi-regular tessilations. It also shows NP-hardness for a new, wide class of graphs called augmented square grids. This work follows…
