✦ Synopsis


The main results assert that the minimum number of Hamiltonian bypasses in a strong tournament of order n and the minimum number of Hamiltonian cycles in a 2-connected tournament of order n increase exponentially with n. Furthermore, the number of Hamiltonian cycles in a tournament increases at least exponentially with the minimum outdegree of the tournament. Finally, for each k a 1 there are infinitely many tournaments with precisely k Hamiltonian cycles.

## Abstract We characterize the family of hamiltonian tournaments with the least number of 3‐cycles, studying their structure and their score sequence. Furthermore, we obtain the number of nonisomorphic tournaments of this family.

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 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__‐vertex maximal planar graph containing exactly four Hamiltonian cycles for every __p__ β‰₯ 12. We also pro
