Abstract

In this paper, we classify all commutative weakly distance-regular digraphs of girth g and one type of arcs under the assumption that \(p_{(1,g-1),(1,g-1)}^{(2,g-2)}\ge k_{1,g-1}-2\). In consequence, Yang et al. (J Comb Theory Ser A 160:288–315, 2018, Theorem 1.1) is partially generalized by our result.
