- The rook graph is a graph whose edges represent all the possible legal moves of the rook chess piece on a chessboard. The problem we consider is the following. Given any set $M$ containing pairs of cells such that each cell of the $m_1 \times m_2$ chessboard is in exactly one pair, we determine the values of the positive integers $m_1$ and $m_2$ for which it is possible to construct a closed tour of all the cells of the chessboard which uses all the pairs of cells in $M$ and some edges of the rook graph. This is an alternative formulation of a graph-theoretical problem presented in [Electron. J. Combin. 28(1) (2021), #P1.7] involving the Cartesian product $G$ of two complete graphs $K_{m_1}$ and $K_{m_2}$, which is, in fact, isomorphic to the $m_{1}\times m_{2}$ rook graph. The problem revolves around determining the values of the parameters $m_1$ and $m_2$ that would allow any perfect matching of the complete graph on the same vertex set of $G$ to be extended to a Hamiltonian cycle by using only edges in $G$.
