## Abstract A __tournament__ is a digraph, where there is precisely one arc between every pair of distinct vertices. An arc is __pancyclic__ in a digraph __D__, if it belongs to a cycle of length __l__, for all 3ββ€β__l__ββ€β|__V__ (__D__) |. Let __p__(__D__) denote the number of pancyclic arcs in a
## Abstract Yao et al. (Discrete Appl Math 99 (2000), 245β249) proved that every strong tournament contains a vertex __u__ such that every outβarc of __u__ is pancyclic and conjectured that every __k__βstrong tournament contains __k__ such vertices. At present, it is known that this conjecture is t
We show that in any n-partite tournament, where n/> 3, with no transmitters and no 3-kings, the number of 4-kings is at least eight. All n-partite tournaments, where n/>3, having eight 4-kings and no 3-kings are completely characterized. This solves the problem proposed in Koh and Tan (accepted).
