Abstract:
By Smith's theorem, if a cubic graph has a Hamiltonian cycle, then it has a second Hamiltonian cycle. Thomason ['Hamilton cycles and uniquely edge-colourable graphs', Ann. Discrete Math. 3 (1978), 259- 268] gave a simple algorithm to find the second cycle. Thomassen [private communication] observed that if there exists a polynomially bounded algorithm for finding a second Hamiltonian cycle in a cubic cyclically 4-edge connected graph G, then there exists a polynomially bounded algorithm for finding a second Hamiltonian cycle in any cubic graph G. In this paper we present a class of cyclically 4-edge connected cubic bipartite graphs G(i) with 16(i + 1) vertices such that Thomason's algorithm takes 12(2(i) - 1) + 3 steps to find a second Hamiltonian cycle in Gi.
