Contraction theorems in Hamiltonian graph theory
1981
Discrete Mathematics
Also stated in terms of contractibility are sufficient conditions for graphs to be traceable, Hamiltonian connected or 1-Hamiltonian, respectiveiy. ...
We prove that a k-connected graph (k 2 2) is Hamiltonian if it is not contractible to one of a specified collection of graphs of order 2k + 1. ...
We shall state a contraction theorem for I-Hamiltonian graphs. ...

Hamiltonian connected hourglass free line graphs
2008
Discrete Mathematics
Thomassen [Reflections on graph theory, J. Graph Theory 10 (1986) 309-324] conjectured that every 4-connected line graph is hamiltonian. ...
Graph Theory 37 (2001) 125-136], it is shown that every 4-connected line graph without an induced subgraph isomorphic to the hourglass is hamiltonian connected. ...
In this note, we shall improve Theorem 1.1 in the following form.
Theorem 1.2. Every 3-connected, essentially 4-connected hourglass free line graph is hamiltonian connected. ...

The ubiquitous Petersen graph

If G is a 3-connected 3-regular graph, then any set A of eleven vertices lies on at least three different cycles of G unless there is a contraction In [20] ErdGs mentioned Theorem 7 and attributed it ...
It is hypohamiltonian, however, in that the removal of any vertex leaves a Hamiltonian graph. Thus, the Petersen graph is, in some sense, 'nearly Hamiltonian'. ...
