New conditions for graph Hamiltonicity

Neal Bushaw, Vinay Gupta, Craig E. Larson, Sarah Loeb, Morgan Norge, Jesse Parrish, Nicolas Van Cleemput, Justin Yirka and Guanyu Wu

Vol. 18 (2025), No. 1, 79–89
Abstract

We present results on new sufficient or necessary conditions for the existence of a Hamilton cycle in a graph. We are especially interested in finding conditions which are not implied by any of a number of well-known theorems in the literature on graph hamiltonicity. We also report a number of unresolved conjectures.
