We provide upper estimates on the spectral radius of a directed graph. In particular w e prove that the spectral radius is bounded by the maximum of the geometric mean of in-degree and out-degree taken over all vertices.

The branching operation D, defined by Propp, assigns to any directed graph G another directed graph D(G) whose vertices are the oriented rooted spanning trees of the original graph G. We characterize the directed graphs G for which the sequence ฮด(G) = (G, D(G), D 2 (G), . . .) converges, meaning tha
It was conjectured in [Wang, to appear in The Australasian Journal of Combinatorics] that, for each integer k โฅ 2, there exists . This conjecture is also verified for k = 2, 3 in [Wang, to appear; Wang, manuscript]. In this article, we prove this conjecture to be true if n โฅ 3k, i.e., M (k) โค 3k. W
We prove that for C a finite set of cycles, there is a universal C-free graph if and only if C consists precisely of all the odd cycles of order less than same specified bound.
We give counterexamples to two conjectures of Bill Jackson in Some remarks on arc-connectivity, vertex splitting, and orientation in graphs and digraphs (Journal of Graph Theory 12(3):429-436, 1988) concerning orientations of mixed graphs and splitting off in digraphs, and prove the first conjecture
