Spectral Conditions for Graphs to be k-Hamiltonian or k-Path-Coverable

A graph G is k-Hamiltonian if for all X ⊂ V (G) with |X| ≤ k, the subgraph induced by V (G) \ X is Hamiltonian. A graph G is k-path-coverable if V (G) can be covered by k or fewer vertex disjoint paths. In this paper, by making use of the vertex degree sequence and an appropriate closure concept (du...
