Hamiltonian cycle and related problems : vertex-breaking, grid graphs, and Rubik's Cubes
… complexity of several problems related to the Hamiltonian Cycle problem. We begin by introducing a new problem, which we call Tree-Residue Vertex-Breaking (TRVB). Given a multigraph G some of whose vertices are marked "breakable," TRVB asks whether it is possible to convert G into a tree via a …

An Algorithm to Generate 4-Regular Planar Hamiltonian Graphs
… problem of randomly generating 4-regular planar Hamiltonian graphs is discussed and a solution is described. An algorithm which efficiently generates the graphs in linear time and in a near-uniform manner is given. In addition, a formula is provided that determines the total number of such …

Finding Hamiltonian Cycles
<p>Finding a Hamiltonian cycle in a graph is used for solving major problems in areas such as graph theory, computer networks, and algorithm design. In this thesis various approaches of Hamiltonian cycle algorithms such as backtrack algorithms and heuristic algorithms, their basic ideas, and their …

Linear-time algorithms for graphs with bounded branchwidth
… INDEPENDENT SET, M AXIMUM CUT, GRAPH COLORING, HAMILTONIAN CYCLE, and DISJOINT PATHS). The linearity is achieved assuming the provision of a branch decomposition of the instance graph. We then modify the framework to create a multithreaded framework that uses the existing problem-specific …

On 4-Regular Planar Hamiltonian Graphs
… as a 4-regular planar graph. The existence of a Hamiltonian cycle in such a graph is necessary in order to use the graph to compute an upper bound on rope length for a given knot. The algorithm to generate such graphs is discussed and an exact count of the number of graphs is obtained. In order …

Precise Partitions Of Large Graphs
… Lemma, we extend some known results about cycles of many lengths to include a specified edge on the cycles. The results in this chapter will help us in rest of this thesis. In 2000, Enomoto and Ota posed a conjecture on the existence of path decomposition of graphs with fixed start vertices …

Combinatorial optimization using quantum computing
… Problem (TSP), which aims to find a minimum-cost Hamiltonian cycle visiting each city exactly once. Using Qiskit, we implement the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) on both simulators and quantum hardware, and compare its performance with that of classical exact optimization via …

Fault-tolerance embedding of rings and arrays in star and pancake graphs
… In this thesis, we present methods to embed Hamiltonian paths (H-path) and Hamiltonian cycles (H-cycle) in a star graph {dollar}S\sb{n}{dollar} and pancake graph {dollar}P\sb{n}{dollar} in a faulty environment. Such embeddings are important for solving computational problems, formulated for …

Planar Graphs and their Duals on Cylinder Surfaces
… the deque characterizes planar graphs with a Hamiltonian path. This result extends the known characterization of planar graphs with a Hamiltonian cycle by two stacks. By these insights, we also obtain a new characterization of queue graphs and their duals. We also consider the complexity of …

Topics in the Generation of Ideals of Posets
… between vertices that differ by a swap, has a Hamiltonian path. The conjecture is true for series-parallel posets and interval orders. We prove the conjecture also holds for the fence posets, but that the conjecture is false for the 3-ideals of the crown poset with six elements. We also provide …

Modeling and Optimization of Rechargeable Sensor Networks
… We introduce the concept of renewable energy cycle and offer both necessary and sufficient conditions for a sensor node to maintain its renewable energy cycle. We study an optimization problem, with the objective of maximizing the ratio of the WCV's vacation time over the cycle time. For this …
