Title
On weighted modulo orientation of graphs
Abstract
Esperet, de Joannis de Verclos, Le and Thomassé in [SIAM J. Discrete Math., 32(1) (2018), 534–542] introduced the problem that for an odd prime p, whether there exists an orientation D of a graph G for any mapping f:E(G)→Zp∗ and any Zp-boundary b of G, such that under D, at every vertex, the net out f-flow is the same as b(v) in Zp. Such an orientation D is called an (f,b;p)-orientation of G. Esperet et al. indicated that this problem is closely related to mod p-orientations of graphs, including Tutte’s nowhere zero 3-flow conjecture. Utilizing properties of additive bases and contractible configurations, we show that every graph G with Euler genus g and edge-connectivity κ′(G) admits an (f,b;p)-orientation for any mapping f:E(G)→Zp∗ and any Zp-boundary b of G, provided κ′(G)≥4p−6+⌊g∕2⌋if g≤2,(p−2)⌊6g+0.25+2.5⌋+1if g≥3,p4.98gif g is sufficiently large.
