Rainbow Hamiltonian cycle conjecture for graph families satisfying an Ore-type condition

From papers

Let nNn\in\mathbb{N} with n3n\geq 3, and let G={Gi:i[n]}\mathcal{G}=\{G_i:i\in[n]\} be a family of nn-vertex graphs with the same vertex set; the graphs in the family may be identical. For a graph GG, let σ(G)\sigma(G) denote the minimum, over all nonadjacent vertex pairs u,vu,v, of dG(u)+dG(v)d_G(u)+d_G(v). Rainbow Hamiltonian cycle conjecture. If σ(Gi)n\sigma(G_i)\geq n for every i[n]i\in[n], then G\mathcal{G} contains a rainbow Hamiltonian cycle. This extends Ore's Hamiltonicity condition from a single graph to a family of graphs; the supplied text gives no resolution, so the conjecture is recorded as open.
