✦ Synopsis
A digraph D is said to be an R-digraph (kernel-perfect graph) if all of its induced subdigraphs possesses a kernel (independent dominating subset).
I show in this work that a digraph D, without directed triangles all of whose odd directed cycles C = (1, 2,..., 2n + 1, 1), possesses two short chords (that means there exist two arcs of D of the form: (q, q + 2) and (q', q' + 2)) is an R-digraph.

## Abstract Let __ir__(__G__) and γ(__G__) be the irredundance number and the domination number of a graph __G__, respectively. A graph __G__ is called __irredundance perfect__ if __ir__(__H__)=γ(__H__), for every induced subgraph __H__ of __G__. In this article we present a result which immediatel
Lawrence [2, Theorem 3] and Borodin and Kostochka [1, Lemma 2' 1 both give the same theorem about vertex colorings of graphs (Corollary 1 below). But Lawrence's proof, although powerful, is a little long, and Borodin and Kostoehka state the result without a proof.
We prove a theorem &wing that for every ir teger p (p a2) there is a good minirlal coloring of the edges alf JCzD such that every hamiltonian path in Kzp uses at least one colour twice. Tphis gives a counter-example tea a conjecture of Ha III [2).
