Computational Complexity Theory
A Hamiltonian cycle is a path in a graph that visits each vertex exactly once and returns to the starting vertex. This concept is crucial in graph theory and computational complexity, as it connects to NP-completeness and NP-hard problems, illustrating the difficulty of finding such cycles in arbitrary graphs and providing a foundation for various techniques used to prove the NP-completeness of related problems.
congrats on reading the definition of Hamiltonian cycle. now let's actually learn it.
