    In this paper we present some results for a connected infinite graph GG with finite degrees where the properties of balls of small radii guarantee the existence of some Hamiltonian and connectivity properties of GG. (For a vertex ww of a graph GG the ball of radius rr centered at ww is the subgraph of GG induced by the set Mr(w)M_r(w) of vertices whose distance from ww does not exceed rr). In particular, we prove that if every ball of radius 2 in GG is 2-connected and GG satisfies the condition dG(u)+dG(v)M2(w)1d_G(u)+d_G(v)\geq |M_2(w)|-1 for each path uwvuwv in GG, where uu and vv are non-adjacent vertices, then GG has a Hamiltonian curve, introduced by K\"undgen, Li and Thomassen (2017). Furthermore, we prove that if every ball of radius 1 in GG satisfies Ore's condition (1960) then all balls of any radius in GG are Hamiltonian.Comment: 18 pages, 6 figures; journal accepted versio

    Asratian and Khachatrian proved that a connected graphG of order at least 3 is hamiltonian ifd(u) + d(v) ≥ |N(u) ∪ N(v) ∪ N(w)| for any pathuwv withuv ∉ E(G), whereN(x) is the neighborhood of a vertexx. We prove that a graphG with this condition, which is not complete bipartite, has the following properties: a) For each pair of verticesx, y with distanced(x, y) ≥ 3 and for each integern, d(x, y) ≤ n ≤ |V(G)| − 1, there is anx − y path of lengthn.  (b)For each edgee which does not lie on a triangle and for eachn, 4 ≤ n ≤ |V(G)|, there is a cycle of lengthn containinge.  (c)Each vertex ofG lies on a cycle of every length from 4 to |V(G)|.  This implies thatG is vertex pancyclic if and only if each vertex ofG lies on a triangle
