    In this thesis we present new results in graph and hypergraph theory all of which feature paths or cycles. A kk-uniform tight cycle Cn(k)C^{(k)}_n is a kk-uniform hypergraph on nn vertices with a cyclic ordering of its vertices such that the edges are all kk-sets of consecutive vertices in the ordering. We consider a generalisation of Lehel's Conjecture, which states that every 2-edge-coloured complete graph can be partitioned into two cycles of distinct colour, to kk-uniform hypergraphs and prove results in the 4- and 5-uniform case. For a kk-uniform hypergraph~HH, the Ramsey number r(H){r(H)} is the smallest integer NN such that any 2-edge-colouring of the complete kk-uniform hypergraph on NN vertices contains a monochromatic copy of HH. We determine the Ramsey number for 4-uniform tight cycles asymptotically in the case where the length of the cycle is divisible by 4, by showing that r(Cn(4))r(C^{(4)}_n) = (5+oo(1))nn. We prove a resilience result for tight Hamiltonicity in random hypergraphs. More precisely, we show that for any γ\gamma >0 and kk ≥\geq 3 asymptotically almost surely, every subgraph of the binomial random kk-uniform hypergraph G(k)(n,nγ−1)G^{(k)}(n, n^{\gamma -1}) in which all (k−1)(k-1)-sets are contained in at least (12+2γ)pn(\frac{1}{2}+2\gamma)pn edges has a tight Hamilton cycle. A random graph model on a host graph HH is said to be 1-independent if for every pair of vertex-disjoint subsets A,BA,B of E(H)E(H), the state of edges (absent or present) in AA is independent of the state of edges in BB. We show that pp = 4 - 23\sqrt{3} is the critical probability such that every 1-independent graph model on Z2×Kn\mathbb{Z}^2 \times K_n where each edge is present with probability at least pp contains an infinite path
