An Inductive Construction for Hamilton Cycles in Kneser Graphs

Bipartite Kneser Graphs are Hamiltonian

The Kneser graph K(n, k) has as vertices all k-element subsets of [n] := {1, 2, . . . , n} and an edge between any two vertices (=sets) that are disjoint. The bipartite Kneser graph H(n, k) has as vertices all k-element and (n−k)-element subsets of [n] and an edge between any two vertices where one is a subset of the other. It has long been conjectured that all connected Kneser graphs and bipar...

Sparse Kneser graphs are Hamiltonian

For integers k ≥ 1 and n ≥ 2k + 1, the Kneser graph K(n, k) is the graph whose vertices are the k-element subsets of {1, . . . , n} and whose edges connect pairs of subsets that are disjoint. The Kneser graphs of the form K(2k + 1, k) are also known as the odd graphs. We settle an old problem due to Meredith, Lloyd, and Biggs from the 1970s, proving that for every k ≥ 3, the odd graph K(2k + 1,...

Hamiltonian Kneser Graphs

The Kneser graph K (n; k) has as vertices the k-subsets of f1;2;:::;ng. Two vertices are adjacent if the corresponding k-subsets are disjoint. It was recently proved by the rst author 2] that Kneser graphs have Hamilton cycles for n 3k. In this note, we give a short proof for the case when k divides n. x 1. Preliminaries. Suppose that n k 1 are integers and let n] := f1; 2; :::; ng. We denote t...

A Note on Hamilton Cy les in Kneser Graphs

Families of strongly projective graphs

We give several characterisations of strongly projective graphs which generalise in many respects odd cycles and complete graphs [7]. We prove that all known families of projective graphs contain only strongly projective graphs, including complete graphs, odd cycles, Kneser graphs and non-bipartite distance-transitive graphs of diameter d ≥ 3.
