Title: Exponents of the primitive Boolean matrices with fixed girth
Abstract:The $girth$ of a primitive Boolean matrix is defined to be the $girth$ of its associated digraph.

In this paper, among all primitive Boolean matrices of order $n$, the primitive exponents of those of girth $g$ are considered. For the primitive matrices of both order $n\geq 10$ and girth $g>\frac{n^{2}-4n}{4(n-3)}$, the matrices with primitive exponents in $[2n-2 +(g- 1)(n-3), n+g(n-2)]$ are completely characterized.Read More
