Abstract

Let G be a strongly connected, aperiodic, two-out digraph with adjacency matrix A. Suppose A = R + B are coloring matrices: that is, matrices that represent the functions induced by an edge-coloring of G. We introduce a matrix Δ = 1/2 (R − B) and investigate its properties. A number of useful conditions involving Δ which either are equivalent to or imply a solution to the road coloring problem are derived.
