4-Transitive Digraphs I: The Structure of Strong 4-Transitive Digraphs
Let D be a digraph, V (D) and A(D) will denote the sets of vertices and arcs of D, respectively. A digraph D is transitive if for every three distinct vertices u, v,w ∈ V (D), (u, v), (v,w) ∈ A(D) implies that (u,w) ∈ A(D). This concept can be generalized as follows: A digraph is k-transitive if for every u, v ∈ V (D), the existence of a uv-directed path of length k in D implies that (u, v) ∈ A(D). A very useful structural characterization of transitive digraphs has been known for a long time, and...
3-transitive digraphs
Let D be a digraph, V(D) and A(D) will denote the sets of vertices and arcs of D, respectively. A digraph D is 3-transitive if the existence of the directed path (u,v,w,x) of length 3 in D implies the existence of the arc (u,x) ∈ A(D). In this article strong 3-transitive digraphs are characterized and the structure of non-strong 3-transitive digraphs is described. The results are used, e.g., to characterize 3-transitive digraphs that are transitive and to characterize 3-transitive digraphs with...
On the Complexity of the 3-Kernel Problem in Some Classes of Digraphs
Let D be a digraph with the vertex set V (D) and the arc set A(D). A subset N of V (D) is k-independent if for every pair of vertices u, v ∈ N, we have d(u, v), d(v, u) ≥ k; it is l-absorbent if for every u ∈ V (D) − N there exists v ∈ N such that d(u, v) ≤ l. A k-kernel of D is a k-independent and (k − 1)-absorbent subset of V (D). A 2-kernel is called a kernel. It is known that the problem of determining whether a digraph has a kernel (“the kernel problem”) is NP-complete, even in quite restricted...
Cyclically k-partite digraphs and k-kernels
Let D be a digraph, V(D) and A(D) will denote the sets of vertices and arcs of D, respectively. A (k,l)-kernel N of D is a k-independent set of vertices (if u,v ∈ N then d(u,v) ≥ k) and l-absorbent (if u ∈ V(D)-N then there exists v ∈ N such that d(u,v) ≤ l). A k-kernel is a (k,k-1)-kernel. A digraph D is cyclically k-partite if there exists a partition of V(D) such that every arc in D is a (mod k). We give a characterization for an unilateral digraph to be cyclically k-partite through the lengths...
k-kernels in generalizations of transitive digraphs
Let D be a digraph, V(D) and A(D) will denote the sets of vertices and arcs of D, respectively. A (k,l)-kernel N of D is a k-independent set of vertices (if u,v ∈ N, u ≠ v, then d(u,v), d(v,u) ≥ k) and l-absorbent (if u ∈ V(D)-N then there exists v ∈ N such that d(u,v) ≤ l). A k-kernel is a (k,k-1)-kernel. Quasi-transitive, right-pretransitive and left-pretransitive digraphs are generalizations of transitive digraphs. In this paper the following results are proved: Let D be a...
Some Remarks On The Structure Of Strong K-Transitive Digraphs
A digraph D is k-transitive if the existence of a directed path (v0, v1, . . . , vk), of length k implies that (v0, vk) ∈ A(D). Clearly, a 2-transitive digraph is a transitive digraph in the usual sense. Transitive digraphs have been characterized as compositions of complete digraphs on an acyclic transitive digraph. Also, strong 3 and 4-transitive digraphs have been characterized. In this work we analyze the structure of strong k-transitive digraphs having a cycle of length at least k. We show...
Some Results on 4-Transitive Digraphs
Let D be a digraph with set of vertices V and set of arcs A. We say that D is k-transitive if for every pair of vertices u, v ∈ V, the existence of a uv-path of length k in D implies that (u, v) ∈ A. A 2-transitive digraph is a transitive digraph in the usual sense. A subset N of V is k-independent if for every pair of vertices u, v ∈ N, we have d(u, v), d(v, u) ≥ k; it is l-absorbent if for every u ∈ V N there exists v ∈ N such that d(u, v) ≤ l. A k-kernel of D is a k-independent and (k − 1)-absorbent...
