The Hereditary-Half-Reconstructibility of Digraphs
Moncef Bouaziz and Nadia El Amri
Let πΊ := (π, πΈ) be a digraph. The subdigraph of πΊ induced by a subset π of π is denoted by πΊ[π]. The dual of πΊ, denoted by πΊ*, is the digraph obtained from πΊ by reversing all its arcs. A digraph πΊβ² := (πβ², πΈβ²) is hemimorphic to πΊ if πΊ and πΊβ² are isomorphic or πΊ* and πΊβ² are isomorphic. Given a nonnegative integer π, a digraph πΊβ² defined on π is (β€ π)-hemimorphic to πΊ if for every subset π of π with at most π elements, the subdigraphs πΊ[π] and πΊβ²[π] are hemimorphic. A digraph πΊβ² defined on π is hereditarily hemimorphic to πΊ, if for every subset π of π, the subdigraphs πΊ[π] and πΊβ²[π] are hemimorphic. The digraph πΊ is (β€ π)-hereditarily-half reconstructible, whenever each digraph πΊβ² (β€ π)-hemimorphic to πΊ, is hereditarily hemimorphic to it. In this paper we answer Y. Boudabbousβs question by characterizing the (β€ π)-hereditarily half-reconstructible digraphs, for each integer π such that π β₯ 7.
