Abstract
It is shown that every kβconnected locally semicomplete digraph D with minimum outdegree at least 2__k__ and minimum indegree at least 2__k__ β 2 has at least m = max{2, k} vertices x~1~, x~2~, β, x~m~ such that D β x~i~ is kβconnected for i = 1, 2, β, m.

We give some sufficient conditions for locally semicomplete digraphs to contain a hamiltonian path from a prescribed vertex to another prescribed vertex. As an immediate consequence of these, we obtain that every 4-connected locally semicomplete digraph is strongly hamiltonian-connected. Our results
## Abstract A __k__βking in a digraph __D__ is a vertex which can reach every other vertex by a directed path of length at most __k__. We consider __k__βkings in locally semicomplete digraphs and mainly prove that all strong locally semicomplete digraphs which are not round decomposable contain a 2
## Abstract In this paper we introduce a new class of directed graphs called locally semicomplete digraphs. These are defined to be those digraphs for which the following holds: for every vertex __x__ the vertices dominated by __x__ induce a semicomplete digraph and the vertices that dominate __x__
If A and Bare two subdigraphs of D, then we denote by &(A, 5) the distance between A and 5. Let D be a 2-connected locally semicomplete digraph on n 2 6 vertices. If S is a minimum separating set of D and d = min{do-s(N+(s) -S, N-(s) -S ) l s E S}, then rn = max(3, d + 2) I n/2 and D contains t w o
In this paper we show that a 2-connected locally semicomplete digraph of order at least 8 is not cycle complementary if and only if it is 2-diregular and has odd order. This result yields immediately two conjectures of Bang-Jensen.
