Title
A stability version for a theorem of Erdős on nonhamiltonian graphs.
Abstract
Let n,d be integers with 1≤d≤n−12, and set h(n,d)≔n−d2+d2 and e(n,d)≔max{h(n,d),h(n,n−12)}. Because h(n,d) is quadratic in d, there exists a d0(n)=(n∕6)+O(1) such that e(n,1)>e(n,2)>⋯>e(n,d0)=e(n,d0+1)=⋯=en,n−12.A theorem by Erdős states that for d≤n−12, any n-vertex nonhamiltonian graph G with minimum degree δ(G)≥d has at most e(n,d) edges, and for d>d0(n) the unique sharpness example is simply the graph Kn−E(K⌈(n+1)∕2⌉). Erdős also presented a sharpness example Hn,d for each 1≤d≤d0(n).
