WOWII Conjecture 194
For a simple connected graph G, if α(G) ≤ 1 + l_avg(G), then G has a Hamiltonian path.
Here α(G) = G.indepNum is the independence number, and
l_avg(G) = averageIndepNeighbors G is the average over all vertices of the independence number
of the neighbourhood.
A Hamiltonian path is a walk visiting every vertex exactly once.
