Abstract

Let G be an undirected and simple graph on n vertices. Let Ο‰, Ξ± and Ο‡ denote the number of components, the independence number and the connectivity number of G. G is called a 1‐tough graph if Ο‰(G – S) β©½ |S| for any subset S of V(G) such that Ο‰(G βˆ’ S) > 1. Let

Οƒ~2~ = min {d(v) + d(w)|v and w are nonadjacent}.

Note that the difference Ξ± ‐ Ο‡ in 1‐tough graph may be made arbitrary large. In this paper we prove that any 1‐tough graph with Οƒ~2~ > n + Ο‡ ‐ Ξ± is hamiltonian.

## Abstract Let __G__ be a graph of order __n__ and 3≀__t__≀__n__/4 be an integer. Recently, Kaneko and Yoshimoto [J Combin Theory Ser B 81(1) (2001), 100–109] provided a sharp Ξ΄(__G__) condition such that for any set __X__ of __t__ vertices, __G__ contains a hamiltonian cycle __H__ so that the dis

The problem is considered under which conditions a 4-connected planar or projective planar graph has a Hamiltonian cycle containing certain prescribed edges and missing certain forbidden edges. The results are applied to obtain novel lower bounds on the number of distinct Hamiltonian cycles that mus

A matrix method is used to determine the number of Hamiltonian cycles on \(P_{m} \times P_{n}, m=4\), 5. This provides an alternative to other approaches which had been used to solve the problem. The method and its more generalized version, transfer-matrix method, may give easier solutions to cases

It is proved that if a planar triangulation different from K3 and K4 contains a Hamiltonian cycle, then it contains at least four of them. Together with the result of Hakimi, Schmeichel, and Thomassen [21, this yields that, for n 2 12, the minimum number of Hamiltonian cycles in a Hamiltonian planar

## Abstract In this article, we shall prove that every bipartite quadrangulation __G__ on the torus admits a simple closed curve visiting each face and each vertex of __G__ exactly once but crossing no edge. As an application, we conclude that the radial graph of any bipartite quadrangulation on th

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
