Note on Petrie and Hamiltonian cycles in cubic polyhedral graphs

Jaroslav Ivančo, Stanislav Jendroľ, Michal Tkáč (1994)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this note we show that deciding the existence of a Hamiltonian cycle in a cubic plane graph is equivalent to the problem of the existence of an associated cubic plane multi-3-gonal graph with a Hamiltonian cycle which takes alternately left and right edges at each successive vertex, i.ei̇t is also a Petrie cycle. The Petrie Hamiltonian cycle in an n -vertex plane cubic graph can be recognized by an O ( n ) -algorithm.
