Small -kernels in digraphs
Irena Penev, Maya Stein, Ana Trujillo-Negrete
We address three questions of Spiro [Europ. J. Combin., 133:Paper No. 104307, 2026] on smallest -kernels in digraphs. All three questions are on the existence of small -kerne…
Oriented Trees in Digraphs without Oriented -cycles
Maya Stein, Ana Trujillo-Negrete
We prove that if is a digraph of maximum outdegree and indegree at least , and minimum semidegree at least that contains no oriented -cycles, then contains each…
Antidirected trees in dense digraphs
Maya Stein, Ana Trujillo-Negrete
We show that if is an -vertex digraph with more than arcs that does not contain any of three forbidden digraphs, then contains every antidirected tree on ar…
Oriented trees and paths in digraphs
Maya Stein
Which conditions ensure that a digraph contains all oriented paths of some given length, or even a all oriented trees of some given size, as a subgraph? One possible condition coul…
