Semi-strict chordality of digraphs

Chordal graphs are important in algorithmic graph theory. Chordal digraphs are a digraph analogue of chordal graphs and have been a subject of active studies recently. In this paper we introduce the notion of semi-strict chordal digraphs which form a class strictly between chordal digraphs and chordal graphs. We characterize semi-strict chordal digraphs by forbidden subdigraphs within the cases of locally semicomplete digraphs and weakly quasi-transitive digraphs.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2008.0356
