Title
Cycles in Hamiltonian graphs of prescribed maximum degree
Abstract
Let G be a Hamiltonian graph G of order n and maximum degree Δ, and let C(G) denote the set of cycle lengths occurring in G. It is easy to see that |C(G)| ≥ Δ - 1. In this paper, we prove that if Δ n/2, then |C(G)| ≥ (n + Δ - 3)/2. We also show that for every Δ ≥ 2 there is a graph G of order n ≥ 2Δ such that |C(G)| = Δ - 1, and the lower bound in case Δ n/2 is best possible.
