A trek between vertices i and j in a mixed graph G with directed and bidirected edges is a triple (PL,PR) where PL is a directed path of directed edges with sink i and source k, PR is a directed path of directed edges with sink j and source l, and either k=l or there is a bidirected edge between k and l. Let A,B,CA,CB be subsets of vertices of G.
We say that (CA,CB) trek-separates A from B in G if for every trek (PL,PR) from a vertex in A to a vertex in B, either PL contains a vertex in CA or PR contains a vertex in CB.
