Abstract: | Jaeger in 1984 conjectured that every -edge-connected graph has a mod -orientation. It has also been conjectured that every -edge-connected graph is mod -contractible. In [Z.-H. Chen, H.-J. Lai, H. Lai, Nowhere zero flows in line graphs, Discrete Math. 230 (2001) 133–141], it has been proved that if G has a nowhere-zero 3-flow and the minimum degree of G is at least 4, then also has a nowhere-zero 3-flow. In this paper, we prove that the above conjectures on line graphs would imply the truth of the conjectures in general, and we also prove that if G has a mod -orientation and , then also has a mod -orientation, which extends a result in Chen et al. (2001) [2]. |
