Problems with Unknown Single Exponential Time Agorithms
In the Graph Homomorphism problem, the input is two graphs $G$ and $H$ and the question is whether there is a mapping $h$ from the vertices of $G$ to the vertices of $H$ such that for every edge $uv\...

Problems with Unknown Single Exponential Time Agorithms
Update 28 Sep 2020: This has been resolved by Wiebking in SODA '20, where he gave a $2^{O(n)}$-time algorithm, with no remaining dependence on $|G|$. (I'll leave up the rest of the answer for ...

A sufficient condition for non existance of hamiltonian cycle
Your question is kind of vague, and I don't know of a comprehensive listing of necessary conditions for Hamiltonicity (or equivalently sufficient conditions for non-Hamiltonicity). But for one such ...

What's the probability for a random graph with degrees greater than 1 to be Hamiltonian?
The probability that a random graph with $n$ nodes and $cn\log n$ edges contains a Hamiltonian circuit tends to $1$ as $n\rightarrow\infty$ (and for sufficiently large $c$) (Pósa 1976). Since an ER ...

Problems with Unknown Single Exponential Time Agorithms
The problem of testing whether a given integer linear program $L$ with $n$ variables has a feasible solution can be solved using $n^{2.5n+o(n)}\cdot |L|$ arithmetic operations. It is a major open ...

Is balanced Hamiltonian cycle NP complete on maximal plane graphs?
Yes, it is still $NP$ complete. This is because of:
Claim: All Hamiltonian cycles on maximal planar graphs are balanced.
Proof: This is a special case of Grinberg's theorem: https://en.wikipedia.org/...

Hamiltonian cycle on a subset of 2D points, constrained by maximum total length
As RB mentioned, this is the Orienteering problem. For points on a plane, http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.92.5979 gives a PTAS.

What are the known classes of undirected graphs such that every graph belonging to that class is guaranteed to have a Hamiltonian Path?
A good resource to answer questions like this is graphclasses.org. You find the graph class you care about -- in this case, Hamiltonian graphs. Then check the maximal subclasses section, and ...

Finding a Hamiltonian cycle from perfect matching of a bipartite graph
If $G$ has a disjoint vertex cycle cover then I agree that $H$ must have a perfect matching, but I don't see the other direction (or I have misunderstood how you define $H$ exactly). I think the ...

Hamiltonian cycle on a subset of 2D points, constrained by maximum total length
This problem is known as the (Undirected) Orienteering problem (I'm unaware of any work that examined distances that come from 2D Euclidean embedding).

Hamiltonian Cycle as an integer linear programming problem
I know this is old, but--
First, make this a 'directed' cycle: only one $e_{ij}$ is true on each vertex, so that $v_i = 1$. This will enable a sort of useful indexing on the cycle.
Next, create ...
