Digraphs Theory Algorithms And Applications

TL;DR: Digraphs is an essential, comprehensive reference for undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers in mathematics, operations research and computer science, and it will also prove invaluable to specialists in related areas, such as meteorology, physics and computational biology.

On the girth of digraphs

TL;DR: A short, self-contained proof of Caccetta and Haggkvist's result that the girth of every digraph with n vertices and minimum outdegree r is at most max⌈n/r⌉,2r−2 is obtained.

On the Caccetta-Haggkvist Conjecture with Forbidden Subgraphs

TL;DR: In this paper, the Caccetta-Haggkvist conjecture for the case l = 3 was shown to hold for all known extremal examples of the C3 conjecture.

A note on the girth of digraphs

TL;DR: It is proved that a digraph of ordern and halfdegree ≧4 has girth not exceeding [n / 4], which is an application of the theory of connectivity of digraphs.
