Degree Sequences and Graph Enumeration
I don't understand the use of the term "recreational math". This seems to be a perfectly good graph theory question.

Efficient way to count Hamiltonian paths in a grid graph for a given pair of vertices
Then answer is sometimes zero. Color the vertices like a chessboard. If there are an odd number of vertices you can't start and end on a white vertex.

Cover time of weighted graphs
So the question now seems to be: does the conditions on the weights given in the first paragraph cause the cover time to be $O(n^2\log n)$, rather than merely $O(n^3)$?

Is this measure related to treewidth?
(I know how to get it. It will just make things easier for everyone.)

Could you give a hyperlink to the arxiv paper?

Problems known to be in both NP and coNP, but not known to be in P
So, presumably you are taking a definition of NP that includes things that are not decision problems? Or can you formulate integer factorization as a decision problem?

Decision problem restricted to inputs that satisfy some necessary condition.
@shreevasta: Well Garey and Johnson stated all their problems like "INPUT: A graph G" etc. It is the normal way to state decision problems.

@Rune: Thanks for modifying your answer. However, I believe I am defining a language: the language consists of strings that represent graphs that satisfy NC and are 3-colorable.

OK, so I can phrase Problem 2 as: "Decide if the input string represents a graph that satisfies NC and is 3-colorable."

Well a decision problem is just one with a yes/no answer, surely? Consider the following problem: Let G be a planar graph. Decide if G is 3-colorable. Is this a promise problem?

Colourings of Graphs with extra conditions
"NP-complete" should be changed to "NP-hard".
