Exponents of of 2-regular Digraphs - Shen (1999)   (Correct)

....that u k v whenever u; v 2 V . The minimum such k is called the exponent of G, denoted exp(G) The local exponent of G at a vertex u 2 V , denoted exp(G : u) is the least integer k such that u k v for each v 2 V . Much work has been done on finding upper bounds for exp(G) see [14] and [3] for example) The diameter bound in Lemma 1 below was proved recently by Shen [9] and Neufeld [6] independently. Neufeld [6] characterized the case of equality in Lemma 1 with the following class of digraphs. Let the family FD consist of the following digraphs G = V; E) The vertex set V = D ....

Local Exponents of Primitive Digraphs - Shen, Neufeld (1998)   (Correct)

.... Gamma 1) 2 1 and showed there is a unique (up to isomorphism) digraph, W n , that attains this bound, where W n = V; E) is defined as follows: V = fu i : 1 i ng and E = f(u i ; u i 1 ) 1 i n Gamma 1g [ f(u n Gamma1 ; u 1 ) u n ; u 1 )g. In 1964, A. L. Dulmage and N. S. Mendelsohn [2] observed that there are gaps in the exponent set ES n = fexp(G) G 2 P n g, where P n is the set of all primitive digraphs of order n. Each gap is a set S of consecutive integers below w n such that no primitive digraph of order n has an exponent in S. In 1981, M. Lewin and Y. Vitek [3] found ....

....s for all 1 k n, where s is the girth of G. J. Shao et al. 6, Theorem 2.1] by applying a theorem contained in B. Liu s doctoral dissertation improved this bound obtaining exp G (k) s(n Gamma 2) k for all 1 k n: In particular, when k = n, this yields the bound of Dulmage and Mendelsohn [2] on exp(G) In Section 2 we provide our own more self contained proof of this result. We define the i th local exponent set ES n (i) fexp G (i) G 2 P n g for each i, where 1 i n. Since exp G (n) exp(G) ES n (n) is the (ordinary) exponent set. It follows from the papers ( 3] 5] 9] ....
