Abstract
In this paper, we determine the maximum size of a nonhamiltonian-connected
graph with prescribed order and minimum degree. We also characterize the
extremal graphs that attain this maximum size. This work generalizes a previous
result obtained by Ore [ J. Math. Pures Appl. 42 (1963) 21-27] and further
extends a theorem proved by Ho, Lin, Tan, Hsu, and Hsu [Appl. Math. Lett. 23
(2010) 26-29]. As a corollary of our main result, we determine the maximum size
of a $k$-connected nonhamiltonian-connected graph with a given order.
