| Summary: | For every positive integer n,we introduce and discuss an isotone Galois connection between the sets of paths of lengths n in a simple graph and the closure operators on the (vertex set of the) graph. We consider certain sets of paths in a particular graph on the digital line Z and study the closure operators associated, in the Galois connection discussed, with these sets of paths. We also focus on the closure operators on the digital plane Z2 associated with a special product of the sets of paths considered and show that these closure operators may be used as background structures on the plane for the study of digital images.
