Abstract
An arc-colored digraph D is properly (properly-walk) connected if, for any ordered pair of vertices , the digraph contains a directed path (a directed walk) from to such that arcs adjacent on that path (on that walk) have distinct colors. The proper connection number (the proper-walk connection number ) of a digraph is the minimum number of colours to make properly connected (properly-walk connected). We prove that for every circulant digraph with and . Furthermore, we give some sufficient conditions for a Hamiltonian digraph to satisfy .
