Every graph occurs as an induced subgraph of some hypohamiltonian graph

We prove the titular statement. This settles a problem of Chvátal from 1973 and encompasses earlier results of Thomassen, who showed it for K_3, and Collier and Schmeichel, who proved it for bipartite graphs. We also show that for every outerplanar graph there exists a planar hypohamiltonian graph containing it as an induced subgraph

Every point is critical

We show that, for any compact Alexandrov surface S (without boundary) and any point y in S, there exists a point x in S for which y is a critical point. Moreover, we prove that uniqueness characterizes the surfaces homeomorphic to the sphere among smooth orientable surfaces. © 2013

Hamiltonicity of Topological Grid Graphs

In this paper we study connectivity and hamiltonicity properties of the topological grid graphs, which are a natural type of planar graphs associated with finite subgraphs of the usual square lattice graph of the plane. The main results are as follows. The shortness coefficient of the family of all topological grid graphs is at most 16/17. Every 3-connected topological grid graph is hamiltonian
