Math Problem Statement
Find any Hamiltonian circuit on the graph above. Give your answer as a list of vertices, starting and ending at the same vertex. Example: ABCA
Solution
To find a Hamiltonian circuit on the given graph, we need a path that visits every vertex exactly once and returns to the starting vertex. Based on the graph structure, one possible Hamiltonian circuit is:
A → B → C → D → E → F → A
This path starts at vertex A, goes through all vertices without repetition, and returns to A.
Let me know if you have questions or would like a deeper explanation.

Tip: A connected graph with vertices is more likely to have a Hamiltonian circuit if each vertex connects to at least other vertices (Dirac's Theorem).
