We present an O n algorithm for finding a specified oriented path of order at Ε½ 2 . least n in a tournament of order n. Using this algorithm, we present an O n algorithm that finds a specified oriented path from a given vertex if one exists.

We prove that with three exceptions, every tournament of order n contains each oriented path of order n. The exceptions are the antidirected paths in the 3-cycle, in the regular tournament on 5 vertices, and in the Paley tournament on 7 vertices. ## 2000 Academic Press Tournaments are very rich st
It is a simple fact that cubic Hamiltonian graphs have at least two Hamiltonian cycles. Finding such a cycle is NP-hard in general, and no polynomial-time algorithm is known for the problem of finding a second Hamiltonian cycle when one such cycle is given as part of the input. We investigate the co
## Abstract This paper studies techniques of finding hamiltonian paths and cycles in hypercubes and dense sets of hypercubes. This problem is, in general, easily solvable but here the problem was modified by the requirement that a set of edges has to be used in such path or cycle. The main result o
## Abstract We consider the problem of the minimum number of Hamiltonian cycles that could be present in a Hamiltonian maximal planar graph on __p__ vertices. In particular, we construct a __p__βvertex maximal planar graph containing exactly four Hamiltonian cycles for every __p__ β₯ 12. We also pro
