In the mathematical field of graph theory, a transitive reduction of a directed graph D is another directed graph with the same vertices and as few edges...

p. 337). We have R+ = R if, and only if, R itself is transitive. Conversely, transitive reduction adduces a minimal relation S from a given relation R...

contains a longer directed path from u to v. Like the transitive closure, the transitive reduction is uniquely defined for DAGs. In contrast, for a directed...

In mathematics, a binary relation R on a set X is transitive if, for all elements a, b, c in X, whenever R relates a to b and b to c, then R also relates...

for which x ≤ y. An alternative way of doing this is to use the transitive reduction of the partial ordering; in general, this produces DAGs with fewer...
