Strong Kernel Number in Certain Oriented Cycle Extension of Graphs

Strong Kernel Number in Certain Oriented Cycle Extension of Graphs A kernel in a directed graph D(V, E) is a set S of vertices of D such that no two vertices in S are adjacent and for every vertex u in V\S there is a vertex v in S, such that (u, v) is an arc of D. The problem of existence of a kernel is itself an NP-complete for a general digraph. But in this paper we solve the strong kernel problem for certain oriented Cycle Extension of graphs namely Circular Ladder and Petersen Graphs. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Mathematics in Computer Science Springer Journals

Abstract

A kernel in a directed graph D(V, E) is a set S of vertices of D such that no two vertices in S are adjacent and for every vertex u in V\S there is a vertex v in S, such that (u, v) is an arc of D. The problem of existence of a kernel is itself an NP-complete for a general digraph. But in this paper we solve the strong kernel problem for certain oriented Cycle Extension of graphs namely Circular Ladder and Petersen Graphs.
