Abstract

Any simple group-grading of a finite dimensional complex algebra induces a natural family of digraphs. We prove that EEopEopEE|E\circ E^{\text{op}}\cup E^{\text{op}}\circ E|\geq |E| for any digraph Γ=(V,E)\Gamma =(V,E) without parallel edges, and deduce that for any simple group-grading, the dimension of the trivial component is maximal.
