HAMILTON CYCLES IN DIRECTED EULER TOUR GRAPHS

In this paper we define the directed Euler tour graph of a directed Eulerian graph by T-transformations, which was introduced by Xia-Xin-guo in 1984, and prove that any edge in a directed Euler tour graph is contained in a Hamilton cycle

Euler tours in hypergraphs

We show that a quasirandom $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ has a tight Euler tour subject to the necessary condition that $k$ divides all vertex degrees. The case when $G$ is complete confirms a conjecture of Chung, Diaconis and Graham from 1989 on the existence of universal cycles for the $k$-subsets of an $n$-set.Comment: version accepted for publication in Combinatoric

Directed path graphs

The concept of a line digraph is generalized to that of a directed path graph. The directed path graph $\overrightarrow P_k(D)$ of a digraph D is obtained by representing the directed paths on k vertices of D by vertices. Two vertices are joined by an arc whenever the corresponding directed paths in D form a directed path on k + 1 vertices or form a directed cycle on k vertices in D. Several properties of $\overrightarrow P_k(D)$ are studied, in particular with respect to isomorphism and traversability
