We assign to each pair of positive integers and a digraph whose set of vertices is and for which there is a directed edge from to if . We investigate the structure of . In particular, upper bounds are given for the longest cycle in . We find subdigraphs of , called fundamental constituents of , for which all trees attached to cycle vertices are isomorphic.
Let be an odd prime, and let be an integer not divisible by . When is a positive integer with and is an th power residue modulo , we determine the value of the product , where In particular, if with , then
