A New Chvátal Type Condition for Pancyclicity

Schmeichel and Hakimi 5], and Bauer and Schmeichel 1] gave an evidence in support of the well-known Bondy’s “metaconjecture” that almost any non-trivial condition on graphs which implies that the graph is hamiltonian also implies that it is pancyclic. In particular, they proved that the metaconjecture is valid for Chvátal’s condition 3]. We slightly generalize their results giving a new Chvâtal type condition for pancyclicity.
