TILING DIRECTED GRAPHS WITH TOURNAMENTS [PDF]
The Hajnal–Szemerédi theorem states that for any positive integer $r$ and any multiple $n$ of $r$ , if $G$ is a graph on $n$ vertices and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}(G)\geqslant (1-1/r)n$ , then $G$ can be partitioned into $n/r$ vertex-disjoint copies of the

Decomposing tournaments into paths
Abstract We consider a generalisation of Kelly's conjecture which is due to Alspach, Mason, and Pullman from 1976. Kelly's conjecture states that every regular tournament has an edge decomposition into Hamilton cycles, and this was proved by Kühn and Osthus for large tournaments. The conjecture of Alspach, Mason, and Pullman asks for the minimum number

Vertex‐disjoint properly edge‐colored cycles in edge‐colored complete graphs
Abstract It is conjectured that every edge‐colored complete graph G on n vertices satisfying Δmon(G)≤n−3k+1 contains k vertex‐disjoint properly edge‐colored cycles. We confirm this conjecture for k=2, prove several additional weaker results for general k, and we establish structural properties of possible minimum counterexamples to the conjecture.

Hitting minors, subdivisions, and immersions in tournaments
The Erd\H{o}s-P\'osa property relates parameters of covering and packing of combinatorial structures and has been mostly studied in the setting of undirected graphs.

Hamilton decompositions of regular tournaments [PDF]
We show that every sufficiently large regular tournament can almost completely be decomposed into edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles. More precisely, for each \eta>0 every regular tournament G of sufficiently large order n contains at least (1/2-\eta)n edge ...

Vertices with the Second Neighborhood Property in Eulerian Digraphs
The Second Neighborhood Conjecture states that every simple digraph has a vertex whose second out-neighborhood is at least as large as its first out-neighborhood, i.e. a vertex with the Second Neighborhood Property.

Oriented coloring on recursively defined digraphs
Coloring is one of the most famous problems in graph theory. The coloring problem on undirected graphs has been well studied, whereas there are very few results for coloring problems on directed graphs. An oriented k-coloring of an oriented graph G=(V,A)

A digraph such that every proper induced subdigraph has a kernel is said to be \emph{kernel perfect} (KP for short) (\emph{critical kernel imperfect} (CKI for short) resp.) if the digraph has a kernel (does not have a kernel resp.).

ABSTRACT An inversion of a tournament T is obtained by reversing the direction of all edges with both endpoints in some set of vertices. Let inv k ( T ) be the minimum length of a sequence of inversions using sets of size at most k that result in the transitive tournament.

Edge‐arc‐disjoint paths in semicomplete mixed graphs
Abstract The so‐called weak‐2‐linkage problem asks for a given digraph D=(V,A) $D=(V,A)$ and distinct vertices s1,s2,t1,t2 ${s}_{1},{s}_{2},{t}_{1},{t}_{2}$ of D $D$ whether D $D$ has arc‐disjoint paths P1,P2 ${P}_{1},{P}_{2}$ so that Pi ${P}_{i}$ is an (si,ti) $({s}_{i},{t}_{i})$‐path for i=1,2 $i=1,2$. This problem is NP‐complete for general digraphs
