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 the torus has a hamiltonian cycle. Copyright Β© 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 69:143β151, 2012

We consider a random rn by n bipartite tournament T, , consisting of rnn independent random arcs which have a common probability p of being directed from the rn part to the n part. We determine the expected value and variance of the number of 4-cycles in T,,,, and the probability that T, , has no cy
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
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
The Kneser graph K (n, k) has as its vertex set all k-subsets of an n-set and two k-subsets are adjacent if they are disjoint. The odd graph O k is a special case of Kneser graph when n = 2k +1. A long standing conjecture claims that O k is hamiltonian for all k>2. We show that the prism over O k is
## 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
