Hamiltonian cycles in 3-tough -free graphs
arXiv:1706.09029
Abstract
A graph is called -free if it does not contain two independent edges as an induced subgraph. Broersma, Patel, and Pyatkin showed that every 25-tough -free graph with at least three vertices is hamiltonian. In this paper, we improve the required toughness in this result from 25 to 3.
