<正>Let V={a1,a2,...,an} be a finite set with n≥2 and Pn(V)the set of all primitive binary relations on V.For Q∈Pn(V),denote by G(Q)the directed graph corresponding to Q. For positive integer d≤n,let Pn(V,d)={Q:Q∈Pn(V)and G(Q)contains exactly d loops}.In this paper,it is proved that the set of common consequent indices of binary relations in Pn(V,d) is {1,2,...,n-「d/2」}.Furthermore,the minimal extremal binary relations are described.
