A relaxation of the Bermond-Thomassen conjecture

Stéphane Bessy, Matthijs Muis, Jean-Sébastien Sereni +2

The well-known Bermond-Thomassen conjecture states that every digraph of minimum out-degree at least contains vertex-disjoint directed cycles. Despite being posed in 198…

Plane Strong Connectivity Augmentation

Stéphane Bessy, Daniel Gonçalves, Amadeus Reinald +1

We investigate the problem of strong connectivity augmentation within plane oriented graphs. We show that deciding whether a plane oriented graph can be augmented with (any num…

Oriented trees in -chromatic digraphs, a subquadratic bound for Burr's conjecture

Stéphane Bessy, Daniel Gonçalves, Amadeus Reinald

In 1980, Burr conjectured that every directed graph with chromatic number contains any oriented tree of order as a subdigraph. Burr showed that chromatic number $(k-1)^2…

Constrained Flows in Networks

Stéphane Bessy, Jørgen Bang-Jensen, Lucas Picasarri-Arrieta

The support of a flow in a network is the subdigraph induced by the arcs for which . We discuss a number of results on flows in networks where we put certain rest…

Dichromatic number of chordal graphs

Stéphane Bessy, Frédéric Havet, Lucas Picasarri-Arrieta

The dichromatic number of a digraph is the minimum integer such that it admits a -dicolouring, i.e. a partition of its vertices into acyclic subdigraphs. We say that a d…

Sparse vertex cutsets and the maximum degree

Stéphane Bessy, Johannes Rauch, Dieter Rautenbach +1

We show that every graph of maximum degree and sufficiently large order has a vertex cutset of order at most that induces a subgraph of maximum degree at mos…
