We study the number of edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles one can guarantee in a sufficiently large graph G on n vertices with minimum degree δ=(1/2+α)n. For any constant α>0, we give an optimal answer in the following sense: let regeven(n,δ) denote the degree of the largest even-regular spanning subgraph one can guarantee in a graph on n vertices with minimum degree δ. Then the number of edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles we find equals regeven(n,δ)/2. The value of regeven(n,δ) is known for infinitely many values of n and δ. We also extend our results to graphs G of minimum degree δ ≥ n/2, unless G is close to the extremal constructions for Dirac's theorem. Our proof relies on a recent and very general result of Kühn and Osthus on Hamilton decomposition of robustly expanding regular graphs.

We describe an algorithm which enumerates all Hamilton cycles of a given 3-regular $n$-vertex graph in time $O(1.276^{n})$, improving on Eppstein's previous bound. The resulting new upper bound of $O(1.276^{n})$ for the maximum number of Hamilton cycles in 3-regular $n$-vertex graphs gets close to the best known lower bound of $\Omega(1.259^{n})$. Our method differs from Eppstein's in that he considers in each step a new graph and modifies it, while we fix (at the very beginning) one Hamilton cycle $C$ and then proceed around $C$, successively producing partial Hamilton cycles.
