Seymour conjectured that every oriented simple graph contains a vertex whose second neighborhood is at least as large as its first. In this note, we put forward a conjecture that we prove is actually equivalent: every oriented simple graph…

Seymour's Second Neighborhood Conjecture (SNC) asserts that every oriented graph has a vertex whose first out-neighborhood is at most as large as its second out-neighborhood. In this paper, we prove that if $G$ is a graph containing no…

A longstanding conjecture of Seymour states that in every oriented graph there is a vertex whose second outneighbourhood is at least as large as its outneighbourhood. In this short note we show that, for any fixed $p\in[0,1/2)$, a.a.s.…

Seymour's Second Neighborhood Conjecture (SNC) states that every oriented graph contains a vertex whose second neighborhood is as large as its first neighborhood. We investigate the SNC for orientations of both binomial and pseudo random…

Seymour Second Neighborhood Conjecture (SSNC) asserts that every finite oriented graph has a vertex whose second out-neighborhood is at least as large as its first out-neighborhood. Such a vertex is called a Seymour vertex. A digraph $D =…

The Second Neighborhood Conjecture of Seymour asserts that every oriented graph contains a vertex~$v$ satisfying $|\Npp(v)|\ge|\Np(v)|$. We introduce \emph{Pisa graphs} -- strongly connected oriented graphs~$D$ with $\Delta(D)=\max_{v\in…

Seymour's Second Neighborhood Conjecture (SSNC) asserts that every oriented finite simple graph (without digons) has a vertex whose second out-neighborhood is at least as large as its first out-neighborhood. Such a vertex is said to have…

Seymour's Second Neighborhood Conjecture asserts that every oriented graph has a vertex whose first out-neighborhood is at most as large as its second out-neighborhood. Combs are the graphs having no induced $C_4$, $\overline{C_4}$, $C_5$,…

Seymour's second neighborhood conjecture states that every simple digraph (without digons) has a vertex whose first out-neighborhood is at most as large as its second out-neighborhood. Such a vertex is said to have the second neighborhood…

Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN) with multi-hop aggregation is more expressive than one-hop GCN but suffers from higher model complexity. Finding the shortest aggregation range that achieves comparable expressiveness and minimizes this…

Seymour's Second-Neighborhood Conjecture states that every directed graph whose underlying graph is simple has at least one vertex $v$ such that the number of vertices of out-distance $2$ from $v$ is at least as large as the number of…

Higher-order graph clustering aims to partition the graph using frequently occurring subgraphs. Motif conductance is one of the most promising higher-order graph clustering models due to its strong interpretability. However, existing motif…

Two simple $n$-vertex graphs $G_{1}$ and $G_{2}$, with respective maximum degrees $\Delta_{1}$ and $\Delta_{2}$, are said to pack if $G_{1}$ is isomorphic to a subgraph of the complement of $G_{2}$. The BEC conjecture by Bollob\'{a}s,…

We prove Seymour's Second Neighborhood Conjecture when the missing graph is disjoint stars under some conditions. Weaker conditions are required when n=2 or 3. In some cases, we exhibit two vertices with the desired property.

We consider a variation of the supermarket model in which the servers can communicate with their neighbors and where the neighborhood relationships are described in terms of a suitable graph. Tasks with unit-exponential service time…

Brambles were introduced as the dual notion to treewidth, one of the most central concepts of the graph minor theory of Robertson and Seymour. Recently, Grohe and Marx showed that there are graphs G, in which every bramble of order larger…

A vertex in a directed graph is said to have a large second neighborhood if it has at least as many second out-neighbors as out-neighbors. The Second Neighborhood Conjecture, first stated by Seymour, asserts that there is a vertex having a…

We investigate `almost counterexamples' to Seymour's second neighbourhood conjecture. In what we call Seymour-tight orientations, the size of the first neighbourhood of each vertex equals the size of its second neighbourhood. We give…

Contrastive learning has recently attracted plenty of attention in deep graph clustering for its promising performance. However, complicated data augmentations and time-consuming graph convolutional operation undermine the efficiency of…

Seymour conjectured that every oriented simple graph contains a vertex whose second neighborhood is at least as large as its first. Seymour's conjecture has been verified in several special cases, most notably for tournaments by Fisher. One…
