✦ Synopsis


NeÄ setÄ ril and Raspaud (Ann. Inst. Fourier 49 (3) (1999) 1037-1056) deÿned antisymmetric ow, which is a variant of nowhere zero ow, and a dual notion to strong oriented coloring. We give an upper bound on the number of colors needed for a strong oriented coloring of a planar graph, and hereby we ÿnd a small antisymmetric ow for any planar graph. In the proof we use a result from combinatorial number theory-the existence of large Sidon sets.

An __acyclic__ edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring such that there are no bichromatic cycles. The __acyclic chromatic index__ of a graph is the minimum number __k__ such that there is an acyclic edge coloring using __k__ colors and is denoted by __a__′(__G__). It was conjectured by Al
