When the Cartesian Product of Directed Cycles is

چکیده
The Cartesian product of two hamiltonian graphs is always hamiltonian. For directed graphs, the analogous statement is false. We show that the Cartesian product C,,, x C,, of directed cycles is hamiltonian if and only if the greatest common divisor (g.c.d.) d of n, and n, is a t least two and there exist positive integers d,, d, so that d, + d, = d and g.c.d. (n,, d,) = g.c.d. (n,, d,) = 1. We also discuss some number-theoretic problems motivated by this result.

On independent domination numbers of grid and toroidal grid directed graphs
A subset $S$ of vertex set $V(D)$ is an {em indpendent dominating set} of $D$ if $S$ is both an independent and a dominating set of $D$. The {em indpendent domination number}, $i(D)$ is the cardinality of the smallest independent dominating set of $D$. In this paper we calculate the independent domination number of the { em cartesian product} of two {em directed paths} $P_m$ and $P_n$ for arbi...
متن کاملOn the outer independent 2-rainbow domination number of Cartesian products of paths and cycles
Let G be a graph. A 2-rainbow dominating function (or 2-RDF) of G is a function f from V(G) to the set of all subsets of the set {1,2} such that for a vertex v ∈ V (G) with f(v) = ∅, thecondition $bigcup_{uin N_{G}(v)}f(u)={1,2}$ is fulfilled, wher NG(v) is the open neighborhoodof v. The weight of 2-RDF f of G is the value$omega (f):=sum _{vin V(G)}|f(v)|$. The 2-rainbowd...
متن کاملOn the Domination of Cartesian Product of Directed Cycles: Results for Certain Equivalence Classes of Lengths
Let γ( −→ Cm2 −→ Cn) be the domination number of the Cartesian product of directed cycles −→ Cm and −→ Cn for m,n ≥ 2. Shaheen [13] and Liu et al. ([11], [12]) determined the value of γ( −→ Cm2 −→ Cn) when m ≤ 6 and [12] when both m and n ≡ 0(mod 3). In this article we give, in general, the value of γ(−→ Cm2 −→ Cn) when m ≡ 2(mod 3) and improve the known lower bounds for most of the remaining c...

Let γ( −→ Cm2 −→ Cn) be the domination number of the Cartesian product of directed 6 cycles −→ Cm and −→ Cn for m,n ≥ 2.

In 8 this article we give, in general, the value of γ( −→ Cm2 −→ Cn) when m ≡ 2 (mod 3) and improve the known lower bounds for most of the remai...
متن کاملActions of a separately strict cpo-monoid on pointed directed complete posets
In the present article, we study some categorical properties of the category {$bf Cpo_{Sep}$-$S$} of all {separately strict $S$-cpo's}; cpo's equipped with a compatible right action of a separately strict cpo-monoid $S$ which is strict continuous in each component. In particular, we show that this category is reflective and coreflective in the category of $S$-cpo's, find the free a...
