On monochromatic paths and bicolored subdigraphs in arc-colored tournaments

Pietra Delgado-Escalante, Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Consider an arc-colored digraph. A set of vertices N is a kernel by monochromatic paths if all pairs of distinct vertices of N have no monochromatic directed path between them and if for every vertex v not in N there exists n ∈ N such that there is a monochromatic directed path from v to n. In this paper we prove different sufficient conditions which imply that an arc-colored tournament has a kernel by monochromatic paths. Our conditions concerns to some subdigraphs of T and its quasimonochromatic...

We call the digraph D an m-coloured digraph if the arcs of D are coloured with m colours. 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 for every pair of vertices of N there is no monochromatic path between them and for every vertex v ∉ N there is a monochromatic path from v to N. We denote by A⁺(u) the set of arcs of D that have u as the initial vertex. We prove that if D is an m-coloured...

Kernels by monochromatic paths and the color-class digraph

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

An m-colored digraph is a digraph whose arcs are colored with m colors. A directed path is monochromatic when its arcs are colored alike. A set S ⊆ V(D) is a kernel by monochromatic paths whenever the two following conditions hold: 1. For any x,y ∈ S, x ≠ y, there is no monochromatic directed path between them. 2. For each z ∈ (V(D)-S) there exists a zS-monochromatic directed path. In this paper it is introduced the concept of...

On kernels by monochromatic paths in the corona of digraphs

Iwona Włoch (2008)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of kernels by monochromatic paths in the corona of digraphs. Using these results, we are able to prove the main result of this paper which provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the corona of digraphs to be monochromatic kernel-perfect. Moreover we calculate the total numbers of kernels by monochromatic paths, independent by monochromatic paths sets and dominating by monochromatic paths sets in this...

In 1982 Laborde, Payan and Xuong [Independent sets and longest directed paths in digraphs, in: Graphs and other combinatorial topics (Prague, 1982) 173-177 (Teubner-Texte Math., 59 1983)] conjectured that every digraph has an independent detour transversal (IDT), i.e. an independent set which intersects every longest path. Havet [Stable set meeting every longest path, Discrete Math. 289 (2004) 169-173] showed that the conjecture holds for digraphs with independence number two. A digraph...
