For each $\\varepsilon>0$, we show that, almost surely, any directed graph $D_M$ with minimum in- and out-degree at least 1 is not only Hamiltonian (as shown by Frieze), but remains Hamiltonian when edges are removed, as long as at most $(1/2-\\varepsilon)$ of both the in- and out-edges incident to each vertex are removed. We say such a directed graph is $(1/2-\\varepsilon)$-resiliently Hamiltonian. Furthermore, for each $\\varepsilon>0$, we show that, almost surely, each directed graph $D_M$ in the sequence is not $(1/2+\\varepsilon)$-resiliently Hamiltonian. This improves a result of Ferber, Nenadov, Noever, Peter and \\v{S}kori\\'{c}, who showed, for each $\\varepsilon>0$, that the binomial random directed graph $D(n,p)$ is almost surely $(1/2-\\varepsilon)$-resiliently Hamiltonian if $p=\\omega(\\log^8n/n)$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-01-28T11:22:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "born resilient", "resiliently hamiltonian", "vertex random directed graph process", "hamiltonicity", "binomial random directed graph" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 36, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
