文摘:In this paper we generalize the concept of NLC-width introduced by Wanke in [39] to directed graphs. We show bounds of this new width parameter for directed graphs and relationships between directed NLC-width and directed clique-width which was introduced by Courcelle and Olariu in [8]. We also compare the measures with their undirected versions of the underlying undirected graphs. Our results imply that computing the directed NLC-width of a directed graph is NP-hard. Further we consider the directed width of digraph classes. We show that the set of directed co-graphs equals the set of graphs of directed NLC-width 1, while the set of directed co-graphs is characterized, by excluding two digraphs, as a proper subset of the set of all graphs of directed clique-width 2, which is a remarkable difference to the undirected versions of the graphs.
