Let $G$ be a (possibly weighted) directed graph with $n$ vertices and let $P$ be its transition matrix. That is, $P = D^{-1}A$ where $A$ is the graph's adjacency matrix and $D$ is a diagonal matrix such that $D[i,i] = \sum_{j=1}^{n}A[i,j]$ (I assume $D[i,i] \neq 0$ for every $i$).
It is well-known that $P$ may not be diagonalizable, even for regular directed graphs. Let $P = VJV^{-1}$ be a Jordan canonical form and let $m$ be the size of the largest Jordan block.
My question is - are there known natural families of directed graphs for which $m$ is constant (that is, does not grow with $n$)?
