On Hamilton cycles in quasiprimitive graphs of order 2pq

Abstract

Let p>q>5 be primes. We determine the socles and corresponding actions of quasiprimitive imprimitive groups of degree 2pq, all of which are almost simple. Using this classification, we prove that a connected graph of order 2pq admitting a quasiprimitive automorphism group contains a Hamilton cycle, except possibly for three specified families of actions with socle PSL(2,p) or PSL(2,q2).
