Extremal digraphs on Meyniel-type condition for hamiltonian cycles in balanced bipartite digraphs

Abstract

Let DD be a strong balanced digraph on 2a2a vertices. Adamus et al. have proved that DD is hamiltonian if d(u)+d(v)3ad(u)+d(v)\ge 3a whenever uvA(D)uv\notin A(D) and vuA(D)vu\notin A(D). The lower bound 3a3a is tight. In this paper, we shall show that the extremal digraph on this condition is two classes of digraphs that can be clearly characterized. Moreover, we also show that if d(u)+d(v)3a1d(u)+d(v)\geq 3a-1 whenever uvA(D)uv\notin A(D) and vuA(D)vu\notin A(D), then DD is traceable. The lower bound 3a13a-1 is tight.
