Every 3-connected {K1,3, N3,3,3}-free graph is Hamiltonian

For non-negative integers i,j and k, let Ni,j,k be the graph obtained by identifying end vertices of three disjoint paths of lengths i,j and k to the vertices of a triangle. In this paper, we prove that every 3-connected {K1,3, N3,3,3}-free graph is Hamiltonian. This result is sharp in the sense tha...

Description
Summary:For non-negative integers i,j and k, let Ni,j,k be the graph obtained by identifying end vertices of three disjoint paths of lengths i,j and k to the vertices of a triangle. In this paper, we prove that every 3-connected {K1,3, N3,3,3}-free graph is Hamiltonian. This result is sharp in the sense that for any integer i 〉 3, there exist infinitely many 3-connected {K1,3, Ni,3,3)-free non-Hamiltonian graphs.
