摘要
In 2014, Grigor’yan, Lin, Muranov and Yau introduced the homotopy theory of digraphs and defined the digraph homotopy groups by taking the fundamental group of the (n-1)-fold iterated based loop digraph. Then inspired by the cubical approach to defining the higher homotopy groups of a based space, a more direct approach to defining higher digraph homotopy groups, which exhibit properties similar to those of the homotopy groups of based topological spaces, was given. At this point two questions naturally arise. Is there a digraph whose higher homotopy group is nontrivial? What other properties of higher homotopy groups for topological spaces have digraph analogues? The purpose of this paper is to address these questions. This is joint work with Stephen Theriault, Jie Wu, and Shing-Tung Yau.
