\(H\)-kernels in the \(D\)-join

Abstract

In \([8]\) the concept of \(H\)-kernel was introduced, which generalizes the concepts of kernel and kernel by monochromatic paths. In this paper, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of H-kernels in the \(D\)-join of digraphs, and consequently, we will give a sufficient condition for the \(D\)-join to be \(H\)-kernel perfect.
