TLDR
In this article, it was shown that a graph is pancyclic if it contains a cycle of length l for every l such that 3 ≤ l ≤ n. This result can be used to show that three well-known hamiltonian degree conditions (due to Chvatal, Fan, and Bondy) actually imply that a (n − 1)-graph is essentially pancyclical.

Weakly pancyclic graphs

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that in many cases the requirements on a graph which ensure that it is weakly pancyclic are considerably weaker than those required for it to be pancyclically.

A generalization of Fan's condition for Hamiltonicity, pancyclicity, and Hamiltonian connectedness

TL;DR: A weakened version of Fan's condition for Hamiltonicity is shown to be sufficient for a 2-connected graph to be pancyclic (with a few exceptions).

On Hamilton's ideals

TL;DR: In this paper, the best possible generalization of Dirac, Posa, and Bondy's necessary and sufficient conditions for a graph to be Hamiltonian was proved. But this generalization was only applicable to bipartite graphs.

Pancyclic graphs II

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Ore conditions for a graph to be Hamiltonian actually imply that the graph is either pancyclic or else is K n 2, n 2.

New sufficient conditions for cycles in graphs

TL;DR: A new sufficient condition for a graph to be Hamiltonian is given that does not require that the closure of the graph should be complete, and so it is independent of the conditions given by Bondy and Chvatal.

The Geng-Hua Fan conditions for pancyclic or Hamilton-connected graphs

TL;DR: It is proved that if G is 2-connected, α(G) ≤ n2 and G satisfies P( n−1) [resp. P(n)], then G is Hamiltonian with some exceptions.
