Sur les quasi-noyaux d’un graphe. (On quasi-kernels of a graph). (French) Zbl 0623.05020

Authors’ summary: “We define three classes of quasi-kernels for a directed graph. As a consequence, we show the existence of quasi-kernels in every progressively finite graph and in every locally finite graph, generalizing the result of Chvátal and Lovász which deals with the finite case. Our method shows that the problem of finding a quasi-kernel in a finite digraph and the problem of finding the unique kernel of an acircuitic finite digraph have the same algorithmic complexity.”
