On d-Fibonacci digraphs

The d-Fibonacci digraphs F(d, k), introduced here, have the number of vertices following some generalized Fibonacci-like sequences. They can be defined both as digraphs on alphabets and as iterated line digraphs. Here we study some of their nice properties. For instance, F(d, k) has diameter d + k -...

Resumo:The d-Fibonacci digraphs F(d, k), introduced here, have the number of vertices following some generalized Fibonacci-like sequences. They can be defined both as digraphs on alphabets and as iterated line digraphs. Here we study some of their nice properties. For instance, F(d, k) has diameter d + k - 2 and is semi-pancyclic; that is, it has a cycle of every length between 1 and l, with l ¿ {2k - 2, 2k - 1}. Moreover, it turns out that several other numbers of F(d, k) (of closed l-walks, classes of vertices, etc.) also follow the same linear recurrences as the numbers of vertices of the d-Fibonacci digraphs.
