摘要
An (oriented) graph H is said to be Fk(k ≥ 2) iff there exists an integer flow in H with all edge-values in [1 - k, -1] {smile} [1, k - 1]. It is known that a plane 2-edge-connected graph is face-colorable with k colors (k ≥ 2) iff it is Fk; W. T. Tutte has proposed [1] to seek for extensions to general graphs of coloring results known for planar graphs through the use of the Fk property. In this direction, we prove among other results that every 2-edge-connected graph is F8. © 1979.
