Let G be a k-regular 2-connected graph of order n. Jackson proved that G is hamiltonian if n 5 3k. Zhu and Li showed that the upper bound 3k on n can be relaxed to q k if G is 3-connected and k 2 63. We improve both results by showing that G is hamiltonian if n 5 gk -7 and G does not belong to a res

## Abstract Let __T__ be the line graph of the unique tree __F__ on 8 vertices with degree sequence (3,3,3,1,1,1,1,1), i.e., __T__ is a chain of three triangles. We show that every 4‐connected {__T__, __K__~1,3~}‐free graph has a hamiltonian cycle. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 49:
Using Ryja c ek's closure, we prove that any 3-connected claw-free graph of order & and minimum degree $ &+38 10 is hamiltonian. This improves a theorem of Kuipers and Veldman who got the same result with the stronger hypotheses $ &+29 8 and & sufficiently large and nearly proves their conjecture sa
## Abstract Let __G__ be a graph and let __V__~0~ = {ν∈ __V__(__G__): __d__~__G__~(ν) = 6}. We show in this paper that: (i) if __G__ is a 6‐connected line graph and if |__V__~0~| ≤ 29 or __G__[__V__~0~] contains at most 5 vertex disjoint __K__~4~'s, then __G__ is Hamilton‐connected; (ii) every 8‐co
## Abstract The topological approach to the study of infinite graphs of Diestel and KÜhn has enabled several results on Hamilton cycles in finite graphs to be extended to locally finite graphs. We consider the result that the line graph of a finite 4‐edge‐connected graph is hamiltonian. We prove a
## Abstract Let __cl__(__G__) denote Ryjáček's closure of a claw‐free graph __G__. In this article, we prove the following result. Let __G__ be a 4‐connected claw‐free graph. Assume that __G__[__N__~__G__~(__T__)] is cyclically 3‐connected if __T__ is a maximal __K__~3~ in __G__ which is also maxim
