Given a graph $G$ with a set $F(v)$ of forbidden values at each $v \in V(G)$, an $F$-avoiding orientation of $G$ is an orientation in which $deg^+(v) \not \in F(v)$ for each vertex $v$. Akbari, Dalirrooyfard, Ehsani, Ozeki, and Sherkati…

Let $G$ be a graph and $F:V(G)\to2^N$ be a set function. The graph $G$ is said to be \emph{F-avoiding} if there exists an orientation $O$ of $G$ such that $d^+_O(v)\notin F(v)$ for every $v\in V(G)$, where $d^+_O(v)$ denotes the out-degree…

A famous conjecture by Thomassen from 1983 asserts that for any given $k,g\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists some $d=d(k,g)\in \mathbb{N}$ such that every graph of minimum degree at least $d$ contains a subgraph of minimum degree at least $k$ and…

A digraph $D$ is an oriented graph if $D$ does not have a pair of opposite arcs. The degree of a vertex $v$ of $D$ is the sum of the in-degree and out-degree of $v.$ Let $fvs(D)$ be the minimum number of vertices whose deletion from $D$…

We show that for any natural number $k \ge 1$, any oriented graph $D$ of minimum semidegree at least $(3k- 2)/4$ contains an antidirected path of length $k$. In fact, a slightly weaker condition on the semidegree sequence of $D$ suffices,…

A proper orientation $D$ of an undirected graph $G$ is an orientation of $G$ such that $d_D^+(u)\not=d_D^+(v)$ for any edge $uv\in E(G)$. Denote the proper orientation number $\vec{\chi}(G)$ of an undirected graph $G$ as the minimum…

An AT-orientation of a graph $G$ is an orientation $D$ of $G$ such that the number of even Eulerian sub-digraphs and the number of odd Eulerian sub-digraphs of $D$ are distinct. Given a mapping $f: V(G) \to \mathbb{N}$, we say $G$ is $f$-AT…

Let $G$ be a simple graph and let $p$ and $q$ be two integer-valued functions on $V(G)$ with $p< q$ in which for each $v\in V(G)$, $q(v) \ge \frac{1}{2}d_G(v)$ and $p(v) \ge \frac{1}{2} q(v)-2$. In this note, we show that $G$ has an…

We show that for any integer $k \ge 4$, every oriented graph with minimum semidegree bigger than $\frac{1}{2}(k-1+\sqrt{k-3})$ contains an antidirected path of length $k$. Consequently, every oriented graph on $n$ vertices with more than…

Let $f(d)$ be the smallest value for which every bridgeless graph $G$ with diameter $d$ admits a strong orientation $\overrightarrow{G}$ such that the diameter of $\overrightarrow{G}$ is at most $f(d)$. Chv\'atal and Thomassen (1978)…

Let $G$ be a connected nonregular graphs of order $n$ with maximum degree $\Delta$ that attains the maximum spectral radius. Liu and Li (2008) proposed a conjecture stating that $G$ has a degree sequence $(\Delta,\ldots,\Delta,\delta)$ with…

We study the enumeration of graph orientations under local degree constraints. Given a finite graph $G = (V, E)$ and a family of admissible sets $\{\mathsf P_v \subseteq \mathbb{Z} : v \in V\}$, let $\mathcal N (G; \prod_{v \in V} \mathsf…

Erd{\H o}s (1963) initiated extensive graph discrepancy research on 2-edge-colored graphs. Gishboliner, Krivelevich, and Michaeli (2023) launched similar research on oriented graphs. They conjectured the following extension of Dirac's…

An orientation of $G$ is a digraph obtained from $G$ by replacing each edge by exactly one of two possible arcs with the same endpoints. We call an orientation \emph{proper} if neighbouring vertices have different in-degrees. The proper…

In this paper, motivated by a problem of Scott and a conjecture of Lee, Loh and Sudakov we consider bisections of directed graphs. We prove that every directed graph with $m$ arcs and minimum semidegree at least $d$ admits a bisection in…

In new progress on conjectures of Stein, and Addario-Berry, Havet, Linhares Sales, Reed and Thomass\'e, we prove that every oriented graph with all in- and out-degrees greater than 5k/8 contains an alternating path of length k. This…

We show that the problem of deciding whether a given graph $G$ has a well-balanced orientation $\vec{G}$ such that $d_{\vec{G}}^+(v)\leq \ell(v)$ for all $v \in V(G)$ for a given function $\ell:V(G)\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$ is…

An orientation $D$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a digraph obtained from $G$ by replacing each edge by exactly one of the two possible arcs with the same end vertices. For each $v \in V(G)$, the indegree of $v$ in $D$, denoted by $d^-_D(v)$, is…

In 1974, Erd\H{o}s asked the following question: given a graph $G$ and a directed graph $\vec{H}$, how many ways are there to orient the edges of $G$ such that it does not contain $\vec{H}$ as a subgraph? We denote this value by $D(G,…
