Determining whether Hamiltonian cycles exist in graphs is an NP-complete problem, so it is no wonder that the Combinatorica function HamiltonianCycle is slow for large graphs. Theorems by Dirac, Ore, Pósa, and Chvátal provide sufficient conditions that are easy to check for the existence of such cycles. This article provides Mathematica programs for those conditions, … Continue reading Search for Hamiltonian Cycles
