A digraph D is said to satisfy the condition O(n) ifd~-(u) + d r (v) >t n whenever uv is not an arc of D. In this paper we prove the following results: If a p x q bipartite tournament T is strong and satisfies O(n), then T contains a cycle of length at least min(2n + 2, 2p, 2q}, unless T is isomorph
Flandrin et ai. (to appear) define a simple bipartite graph to be biclaw-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to H, where H could be obtained from two copies of K1.3 by adding an edge joining the two vertices of degree 3. They have shown that if G is a bipartite, balanced, biclaw-free
Bruce Reed asks the following question: Can we determine whether a bipartite graph contains a chordless cycle whose length is a multiple of 4? We show that the two following more general questions are equivalent and we provide an answer. Given a bipartite graph G where each edge is assigned a weight
In this paper we obtain two sufficient conditions, Ore type (Theorem 1) and Dirac type (Theorem 2). on the degrees of a bipartite oriented graph for ensuring the existence of long paths and cycles. These conditions are shown to be the best possible in a sense. An oriented graph is a digraph without
P Γ³sa proved that if G is an n-vertex graph in which any two nonadjacent vertices have degree-sum at least n+k, then G has a spanning cycle containing any specified family of disjoint paths with a total of k edges. We consider the analogous problem for a bipartite graph G with n vertices and parts o
