Abstract
Dirac (2) and Plummer (5) independently investigated the structure of minimally 2-connected graphs G, which are characterized by the property that for any line x of G, G–x is not 2-connected. In this paper we investigate an analogous class of strongly connected digraphs D such that for any arc x, D–x is not strong. Not surprisingly, these digraphs have much in common with the minimally 2-connected graphs, and a number of theorems similar to those in (2) and (5) are proved, notably our Theorems 9 and 12.
