Sparse Kneser graphs are Hamiltonian
Abstract For integers k⩾1 and n⩾2k+1, the Kneser graph K(n,k) is the graph whose vertices are the k‐element subsets of {1,…,n} and whose edges connect pairs of subsets that are disjoint. The Kneser graphs of the form K(2k+1,k) are also known as the odd graphs.

Decomposing tournaments into paths
Abstract We consider a generalisation of Kelly's conjecture which is due to Alspach, Mason, and Pullman from 1976. Kelly's conjecture states that every regular tournament has an edge decomposition into Hamilton cycles, and this was proved by Kühn and Osthus for large tournaments. The conjecture of Alspach, Mason, and Pullman asks for the minimum number

Hamiltonian paths on Platonic graphs
We develop a combinatorial method to show that the dodecahedron graph has, up to rotation and reflection, a unique Hamiltonian cycle. Platonic graphs with this property are called topologically uniquely Hamiltonian. The same method is used to demonstrate topologically distinct Hamiltonian cycles on the icosahedron graph and to show that a regular graph

Old and new generalizations of line graphs
Line graphs have been studied for over seventy years. In 1932, H. Whitney showed that for connected graphs, edge‐isomorphism implies isomorphism except for K3 and K1,3. The line graph transformation is one of the most widely studied of all graph transformations.

Uniquely hamiltonian graphs for many sets of degrees [PDF]
We give constructive proofs for the existence of uniquely hamiltonian graphs for various sets of degrees. We give constructions for all sets with minimum 2 (a trivial case added for completeness), all sets with minimum 3 that contain an even number (for ...

Lower Bound on the Number of Hamiltonian Cycles of Generalized Petersen Graphs
In this paper, we investigate the number of Hamiltonian cycles of a generalized Petersen graph P (N, k) and prove that Ψ(P(N,3))⩾N⋅αN,\Psi ( {P ( {N,3} )} ) \ge N \cdot {\alpha _N}, where Ψ(P(N, 3)) is the number of Hamiltonian cycles of P(N, 3) and αN ...

Longest cycles in certain bipartite graphs
Let G be a connected bipartite graph with bipartition (X, Y) such that |X| ≥ |Y|(≥2), n = |X| and m = |Y|. Suppose, for all vertices x ∈ X and y ∈ Y, dist(x, y) = 3 implies d(x) + d(y) ≥ n + 1. Then G contains a cycle of length 2m. In particular, if m = n, then G is hamiltomian.

Vertices with the Second Neighborhood Property in Eulerian Digraphs
The Second Neighborhood Conjecture states that every simple digraph has a vertex whose second out-neighborhood is at least as large as its first out-neighborhood, i.e. a vertex with the Second Neighborhood Property.

Hamiltonicities of Double Domination Critical and Stable Claw-Free Graphs
A graph G with the double domination number γ×2(G) = k is said to be k- γ×2-critical if γ×2 (G + uv) < k for any uv ∉ E(G). On the other hand, a graph G with γ×2 (G) = k is said to be k-γ×2+$k - \gamma _{ \times 2}^ + $-stable if γ×2 (G + uv) = k for any
