Abstract

The dd-Fibonacci digraphs F(d,k)F(d,k), introduced here, have the number of vertices following 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(2,k)F(2,k) has diameter d+k2d+k-2 and is semi-pancyclic, that is, it has a cycle of every length between 1 and \ell, with {2k2,2k1}\ell\in\{2k-2,2k-1\}. Moreover, it turns out that several other numbers of F(d,k)F(d,k) (of closed ll-walks, classes of vertices, etc.) also follow the same linear recurrences as the numbers of vertices of the dd-Fibonacci digraphs.
