2 Introduction Definition: A colored eulerian digraph G is an eulerian digraph with a given edge coloring (not necessarily proper). Definition: A compatible circuit is an eulerian circuit of G such that no two consecutive edges in the tour have the same color (i.e. no monochromatic transitions) James Carraher (UNL) Compatible circuits in eulerian digraphs 2 / 12

9 Fixable vertices Let T be an eulerian circuit of G and a vertex of G. We define the excursion graph L T ( ) to be the following graph. G v L (v) T v James Carraher (UNL) Compatible circuits in eulerian digraphs 6 / 12
10 Fixable vertices Let T be an eulerian circuit of G and a vertex of G. We define the excursion graph L T ( ) to be the following graph. G v L (v) T v Definition: A vertex is fixable if L M ( ) has a compatible circuit for any matching M between E + ( ) and E ( ). James Carraher (UNL) Compatible circuits in eulerian digraphs 6 / 12
11 Fixable vertices Proposition. Let G be a colored eulerian digraph. If every vertex of G is a fixable vertex then G has a compatible circuit. Idea: Iteratively fix fixable vertices. James Carraher (UNL) Compatible circuits in eulerian digraphs 7 / 12
12 Fixable vertices Proposition. Let G be a colored eulerian digraph. If every vertex of G is a fixable vertex then G has a compatible circuit. Idea: Iteratively fix fixable vertices. Proposition.

13 Fixable vertices Proposition. Let G be a colored eulerian digraph. If every vertex of G is a fixable vertex then G has a compatible circuit. Idea: Iteratively fix fixable vertices. Proposition.

17 Non-fixable vertices Problem: Let H be a multigraph whose edge set is the disjoint union of 2-trails. When does there exist a subset E of the edges such that 1 E contains at most one edge from each 2-trail, and 2 the spanning subgraph with edge set E is connected?

18 Non-fixable vertices Problem: Let H be a multigraph whose edge set is the disjoint union of 2-trails. When does there exist a subset E of the edges such that 1 E contains at most one edge from each 2-trail, and 2 the spanning subgraph with edge set E is connected? A multigraph H with the property above will be said to contain a rainbow spanning tree. James Carraher (UNL) Compatible circuits in eulerian digraphs 10 / 12
19 Non-fixable vertices Theorem. Let G be a colored eulerian digraph with no nonfixable vertices of outdegree three. Then G has a compatible circuit if and only if the component graph H G contains a rainbow spanning tree. James Carraher (UNL) Compatible circuits in eulerian digraphs 11 / 12
20 Non-fixable vertices Theorem. Let G be a colored eulerian digraph with no nonfixable vertices of outdegree three. Then G has a compatible circuit if and only if the component graph H G contains a rainbow spanning tree. Comment: There is a polynomial time algorithm to determine if a multigraph H contains a rainbow spanning tree. Therefore if G has no nonfixable vertices of outdegree three then there is a polynomial time algorithm to determine if G has a compatible circuit.

21 Non-fixable vertices Theorem. Let G be a colored eulerian digraph with no nonfixable vertices of outdegree three. Then G has a compatible circuit if and only if the component graph H G contains a rainbow spanning tree. Comment: There is a polynomial time algorithm to determine if a multigraph H contains a rainbow spanning tree. Therefore if G has no nonfixable vertices of outdegree three then there is a polynomial time algorithm to determine if G has a compatible circuit. Open Question: Does there exist a polynomial time algorithm to determine if G has a compatible circuit if G contains nonfixable vertices of outdegree three?
