Hamilton Surface Decomposition – 60 Years and One Week Later

In 1955 Gerhard Ringel introduced the notion of Hamilton Surface Decomposition. 30 years later he wrote two more papers with Nora Hartsfield and Brad Jackson on the same topic. Approximately at the same time I wrote a manuscript together with Brian Alspach. Our result generalizes a lot Ringel’s original result. About 30 years we were polishing the paper, even with help of Alen Orbanić. The purpose of this talk is to test whether the paper is ready to be published.
