Colourful Hamilton cycle packing conjecture for Dirac graphs

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let cc satisfy 1/2<c⩽11/2<c\leqslant1, let GG be an nn-vertex graph with minimum degree δ(G)⩾cn\delta(G)\geqslant cn, and suppose the edges of GG are properly edge-coloured. Colourful Hamilton cycle packing conjecture. The graph GG contains at least n/8n/8 Hamilton cycles, each using at least cn−o(n)cn-o(n) distinct colours. The conjecture is motivated by results on edge-disjoint Hamilton cycle packings in uncoloured graphs; the supplied text gives no resolution evidence, so it remains open.
