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...

k-Kernels and some operations in digraphs

Hortensia Galeana-Sanchez, Laura Pastrana (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let D be a digraph. V(D) denotes the set of vertices of D; a set N ⊆ V(D) is said to be a k-kernel of D if it satisfies the following two conditions: for every pair of different vertices u,v ∈ N it holds that every directed path between them has length at least k and for every vertex x ∈ V(D)-N there is a vertex y ∈ N such that there is an xy-directed path of length at most k-1. In this paper, we consider some operations on digraphs and prove the existence of k-kernels in digraphs formed...

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...

A note on kernels and solutions in digraphs

Matúš Harminc, Roman Soták (1999)

Similarity:

For given nonnegative integers k,s an upper bound on the minimum number of vertices of a strongly connected digraph with exactly k kernels and s solutions is presented.

A sufficient condition for the existence of k-kernels in digraphs

H. Galeana-Sánchez, H.A. Rincón-Mejía (1998)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In this paper, we prove the following sufficient condition for the existence of k-kernels in digraphs: Let D be a digraph whose asymmetrical part is strongly conneted and such that every directed triangle has at least two symmetrical arcs. If every directed cycle γ of D with l(γ) ≢ 0 (mod k), k ≥ 2 satisfies at least one of the following properties: (a) γ has two symmetrical arcs, (b) γ has four short chords. Then D has a k-kernel. This result generalizes some previous...

Homotopic methods are employed for the characterization of the complete digraphs which are the composition of non-trivial highly regular tournaments.
