This gives an approximate solution to a problem of Thomassen. In fact, we prove the stronger result that G is still Hamiltonian if \\delta(G)+\\delta^+(G)+\\delta^-(G)\\geq 3|G|/2 + \\alpha |G|. Up to the term \\alpha |G| this confirms a conjecture of H\\\"aggkvist. We also prove an Ore-type theorem for oriented graphs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2008-06-04T15:33:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C20", "05C38", "05C45", "05C35" ], "keywords": [ "dirac type result", "hamilton cycle", "sufficiently large oriented graph", "approximate solution", "stronger result" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0709.1047K" } } }
