4-Transitive Digraphs I: The Structure of Strong 4-Transitive Digraphs

César Hernández-Cruz (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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...

Monochromatic paths and monochromatic sets of arcs in quasi-transitive digraphs

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez, R. Rojas-Monroy, B. Zavala (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let D be a digraph, V(D) and A(D) will denote the sets of vertices and arcs of D, respectively. We call the digraph D an m-coloured digraph if each arc of D is coloured by an element of {1,2,...,m} where m ≥ 1. A directed path is called monochromatic if all of its arcs are coloured alike. A set N of vertices of D is called a kernel by monochromatic paths if there is no monochromatic path between two vertices of N and if for every vertex v not in N there is a monochromatic path from v...

3-transitive digraphs

César Hernández-Cruz (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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...

On the Existence of (k,l)-Kernels in Infinite Digraphs: A Survey

H. Galeana-Sánchez, C. Hernández-Cruz (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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 (if u, v ∈ N, u 6= 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) set of vertices. A k-kernel is a (k, k −1)-kernel. This work is a survey of results proving sufficient conditions for the existence of (k, l)-kernels in infinite digraphs. Despite all the previous work in this direction...

k-kernels in generalizations of transitive digraphs

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez, César Hernández-Cruz (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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:...

(K − 1)-Kernels In Strong K-Transitive Digraphs

Ruixia Wang (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let D = (V (D),A(D)) be a digraph and k ≥ 2 be an integer. A subset N of V (D) is k-independent if for every pair of vertices u, v ∈ N, we have d(u, v) ≥ k; it is l-absorbent if for every u ∈ V (D) − N, there exists v ∈ N such that d(u, v) ≤ l. A (k, l)-kernel of D is a k-independent and l-absorbent subset of V (D). A k-kernel is a (k, k − 1)-kernel. A digraph D is k-transitive if for any path x0x1 ・ ・ ・ xk of length k, x0 dominates xk.

Some Results on 4-Transitive Digraphs

Patricio Ricardo García-Vázquez, César Hernández-Cruz (2017)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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...

Some Remarks On The Structure Of Strong K-Transitive Digraphs

César Hernández-Cruz, Juan José Montellano-Ballesteros (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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...

On the Complexity of the 3-Kernel Problem in Some Classes of Digraphs

Pavol Hell, César Hernández-Cruz (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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...

On graphs all of whose {C₃,T₃}-free arc colorations are kernel-perfect

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez, José de Jesús García-Ruvalcaba (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A digraph D is called a kernel-perfect digraph or KP-digraph when every induced subdigraph of D has a kernel. We call the digraph D an m-coloured digraph if the arcs of D are coloured with m distinct colours. A path P is monochromatic in D if all of its arcs are coloured alike in D. The closure of D, denoted by ζ(D), is the m-coloured digraph defined as follows: V( ζ(D)) = V(D), and A( ζ(D)) = ∪_{i} {(u,v) with colour i: there exists a monochromatic...

Frucht’s Theorem for the Digraph Factorial

Richard H. Hammack (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

To every graph (or digraph) A, there is an associated automorphism group Aut(A). Frucht’s theorem asserts the converse association; that for any finite group G there is a graph (or digraph) A for which Aut(A) ∼= G. A new operation on digraphs was introduced recently as an aid in solving certain questions regarding cancellation over the direct product of digraphs. Given a digraph A, its factorial A! is certain digraph whose vertex set is the permutations of V (A). The arc set E(A!) forms...
