On Arc Connectivity of Direct-Product Digraphs

Four natural orientations of the direct product of two digraphs are introduced in this paper. Sufficient and necessary conditions for these orientations to be strongly connected are presented, as well as an explicit expression of the arc connectivity of a class of direct-product digraphs.
