for every G and every k ≥ 0 the relation →G,k is transitive? That is, is it always the case
that if x →G,k y and y →G,k z then we have x →G,k z? Give a proof or a counterexample.
(B) Suppose that for each node v of G the number of edges into v is equal to the number of
edges out of v. Let x, y be two nodes and suppose there exist k mutually edge-disjoint
paths from x to y. Does it follow that there exist k mutually disjoint paths from y to x?
Give a proof or a counterexample.
