✦ Synopsis


In this paper we present some results on the existence of /c-kernels and (k, [)-kernels in digraphs which generalize the following Theorem of P. Duchet [2]: "If every directed cycle of odd length in a digraph D has at least two symmetrical arcs, then D has a kernel.

## Abstract A vertex set __X__ of a digraph __D__ = (__V, A__) is a __kernel__ if __X__ is independent (i.e., all pairs of distinct vertices of __X__ are non‐adjacent) and for every __v__ ∈ __V__‐__X__ there exists __x__ ∈ __X__ such that __vx__ ∈ __A__. A vertex set __X__ of a digraph __D__ = (__V

We prove that Woodall's and GhouileHouri's conditions on degrees which ensure that a digraph is Hamiltonian, also ensure that it contains the analog of a directed Hamiltonian cycle but with one edge pointing the wrong way; that is, it contains two vertices that are connected in the same direction by

A 1-factor of a graph G = (V, E) is a collection of disjoint edges which contain all the vertices of V . Given a 2n -1 edge coloring of K2n, n ≥ 3, we prove there exists a 1-factor of K2n whose edges have distinct colors. Such a 1-factor is called a ''Rainbow.''
