Abstract

We study the Hamilton cycle problem with input a random graph G=G(n,p) in two\nsettings. In the first one, G is given to us in the form of randomly ordered\nadjacency lists while in the second one we are given the adjacency matrix of G.\nIn each of the settings we give a deterministic algorithm that w.h.p. either it\nfinds a Hamilton cycle or it returns a certificate that such a cycle does not\nexists, for p > 0. The running times of our algorithms are w.h.p. O(n) and\nO(n/p) respectively each being best possible in its own setting.\n
