Symbolic powers in weighted oriented graphs

Abstract: Let

D

be a weighted oriented graph with the underlying graph

G

when vertices with non-trivial weights are sinks and

I (D), I (G)

be the edge ideals corresponding to

D

and

G,

respectively. We give explicit description of the symbolic powers of

I (D)

using the concept of strong vertex covers. We show that the ordinary and symbolic powers of

I (D)

and

I (G)

behave in a similar way. We provide a description for symbolic powers and Waldschmidt constant of

I (D)

for certain classes of weighted oriented graphs. When

D

is a weighted oriented odd cycle we compute

e g (I (D)^{(s)} / I (D)^{s})

and prove

e g I (D)^{(s)} l e q e g I (D)^{s}

and show that equality holds when there is only one vertex with non-trivial weight.
