摘要
It was conjectured by Jaeger that every 4p-edge-connected graph admits a modulo (2p + 1)-orientation (and, therefore, admits a nowhere-zero circular (2 + 1/p)-flow). This conjecture was partially proved by Lovasz et al. (2013) [7] for 6p-edge-connected graphs. In this paper, infinite families of counterexamples to Jaeger's conjecture are presented. For p >= 3, there are 4p-edge-connected graphs not admitting modulo (2p + 1)-orientation; for p >= 5, there are (4p + 1)-edgeconnected graphs not admitting modulo (2p + 1)-orientation.
