چکیده

The average connectivity of a digraph is the average, over all ordered pairs of vertices, of the maximum number of internally disjoint directed paths connecting these vertices. Among the results in this paper, we determine the minimum average connectivity among all orientations of the complete multipartite graph K n1 ,n2, ... ,nk and the maximum average connectivity when all partite sets have the same order.

Two-path convexity in clone-free regular multipartite tournaments

We present some results on two-path convexity in clone-free regular multipartite tournaments. After proving a structural result for regular multipartite tournaments with convexly independent sets of a given size, we determine tight upper bounds for their size (called the rank) in clone-free regular bipartite and tripartite tournaments. We use this to determine tight upper bounds for the Helly a...

Almost all almost regular c-partite tournaments with cgeq5 are vertex pancyclic

A tournament is an orientation of a complete graph and a multipartite or c-partite tournament is an orientation of a complete c-partite graph. If D is a digraph, then let d + (x) be the outdgree and d ? (x) the indegree of the vertex x in D. The minimum (maximum) out-degree and the minimum (maximum) indegree of D are denoted by + ((+) and ? ((?), respectively. In addition, we deene = minf + ; ?...

Weakly Complementary Cycles in 3-Connected Multipartite Tournaments

The vertex set of a digraph D is denoted by V (D). A c-partite tournament is an orientation of a complete c-partite graph. A digraph D is called cycle complementary if there exist two vertex disjoint cycles C1 and C2 such that V (D) = V (C1) ∪ V (C2), and a multipartite tournament D is called weakly cycle complementary if there exist two vertex disjoint cycles C1 and C2 such that V (C1) ∪ V (C2...

On two-path convexity in multipartite tournaments

In the context of two-path convexity, we study the rank, Helly number, Radon number, Caratheodory number, and hull number for multipartite tournaments. We show the maximum Caratheodory number of a multipartite tournament is 3. We then derive tight upper bounds for rank in both general multipartite tournaments and clone-free multipartite tournaments. We show that these same tight upper bounds ho...
