โฆ Synopsis
The hamiltonian path graph H(F) of a graph F is that graph having the same vertex set as F and in which two vertices u and u are adjacent if and only if F contains a hamiltonian u -u path. First, in response to a conjecture of Chartrand, Kapoor and Nordhaus, a characterization of nonhamiltonian graphs isomorphic to their hamiltonian path graphs is presented. Next, the maximum size of a hamiltonian graph F of given order such that xd C H(F) is determined. Finally, it is shown that if the degree sum of the endvertices of a hamiltonian path in a graph F with a t least five vertices is at least IV(f)I + t(t b 0). then H ( f ) contains a complete subgraph of order t + 4.

It is shown that, if t is an integer !3 and not equal to 7 or 8, then there is a unique maximal graph having the path P t as a star complement for the eigenvalue ร2: The maximal graph is the line graph of K m,m if t ยผ 2mร1, and of K m,m รพ1 if t ยผ 2m. This result yields a characterization of L(G ) wh

We give a simple proof that the obvious necessary conditions for a graph to contain the k th power of a Hamiltonian path are sufficient for the class of interval graphs. The proof is based on showing that a greedy algorithm tests for the existence of Hamiltonian path powers in interval graphs. We wi
