\title{Kautz graphs}
\description{Kautz graphs are labeled graphs representing the
overlap of strings. }
\usage{
graph.kautz(m,n)
}
\arguments{
\item{m}{Integer scalar, the size of the alphabet. See details below.}
\item{n}{Integer scalar, the length of the labels. See details below.}
}
\details{
A Kautz graph is a labeled graph, vertices are labeled by strings
of length \code{n+1} above an alphabet with \code{m+1} letters, with
the restriction that every two consecutive letters in the string
must be different. There is a directed edge from a vertex \code{v} to
another vertex \code{w} if it is possible to transform the string of
\code{v} into the string of \code{w} by removing the first letter and
appending a letter to it.
Kautz graphs have some interesting properties, see eg. Wikipedia
for details.
