We consider finite, loopless graphs or digraphs, without multiple edges or arcs (with no pairs of opposite arcs). Let G = (V, E) be a graph. A digraph D = (V, A) is an orientation of G if A is created from E by replacing every edge of E by an arc in one direction.

Let n

d

denote the number of vertices with the degree d in G. By the de- gree pair of a vertex v ∈ V in D the ordered pair [outdegree(v), indegree(v)]

is meant.

It is easy to see that if there exists a strongly connected orientation D of a graph G with pairwise different degree pairs of vertices in D then in G we have n

d

< d for every positive integer d.

Conjecture. Let G be an undirected graph and let n

d

< d for every positive integer d. Then there exists a strongly connected orientation D of G with pairwise different degree pairs of vertices.

If it is incident with a 3-face, then the other two vertices on the same face must be of degree at least 5 and this implies that v receives at least 2 5 from its incident faces..

In [2] Bereˇzn´y, Cechl´arov´a and Lacko showed that the spanning tree, match- ing and path problems considered with the L 3 objective function are NP complete already on

We prove that if D is an m-coloured 3-quasitransitive digraph such that for every vertex u of D, A + (u) is monochromatic and D satisfies some colouring conditions over one

Hence, the class of dual-chordal 3-regular graphs mentioned in Theorem 8 is the class of 3-connected, 3-regular dual-chordal graphs that is characterized five ways in [7, §3], one

The vertex/edge labeling considered here is similar to that used in studying mod sum* graphs (see p. 113 of [2]) in that every graph in this paper is a mod sum* graph, but not every

We prove that if D is an m-coloured quasi-transitive digraph such that for every vertex u of D the set of arcs that have u as initial end point is monochromatic and D contains no C
