The Hamiltonian Cycle Problem in graph theory is a quest to find a cycle that visits each vertex once, returning to the start. This NP-complete problem is crucial for understanding computational complexity and has applications in optimization and algorithm development. Researchers are exploring new methods to tackle its challenges, including parallel processing and quantum computing, to improve problem-solving in networked systems.
