In 1985, Mader conjectured the existence of a function $f$ such that every digraph with minimum out-degree at least $f(k)$ contains a subdivision of the transitive tournament of order $k$. This conjecture is still completely open, as the existence of $f(5)$ remains unknown. In this paper, we show that if $D$ is an oriented path, or an in-arborescence (i.e., a tree with all edges oriented towards the root) or the union of two directed paths from $x$ to $y$ and a directed path from $y$ to $x$, then every digraph with minimum out-degree large enough contains a subdivision of $D$. Additionally, we study Maders conjecture considering another graph parameter. The dichromatic number of a digraph $D$ is the smallest integer $k$ such that $D$ can be partitioned into $k$ acyclic subdigraphs. We show that any digraph with dichromatic number greater than $4^m (n-1)$ contains every digraph with $n$ vertices and $m$ arcs as a subdivision.

In this paper, we give bounds on the dichromatic number $vec{chi}(Sigma)$ of a surface $Sigma$, which is the maximum dichromatic number of an oriented graph embeddable on $Sigma$. We determine the asymptotic behaviour of $vec{chi}(Sigma)$ by showing that there exist constants $a_1$ and $a_2$ such that, $ a_1frac{sqrt{-c}}{log(-c)} leq vec{chi}(Sigma) leq a_2 frac{sqrt{-c}}{log(-c)} $ for every surface $Sigma$ with Euler characteristic $cleq -2$. We then give more explicit bounds for some surfaces with high Euler characteristic. In particular, we show that the dichromatic numbers of the projective plane $mathbb{N}_1$, the Klein bottle $mathbb{N}_2$, the torus $mathbb{S}_1$, and Dycks surface $mathbb{N}_3$ are all equal to $3$, and that the dichromatic numbers of the $5$-torus $mathbb{S}_5$ and the $10$-cross surface $mathbb{N}_{10}$ are equal to $4$. We also consider the complexity of deciding whether a given digraph or oriented graph embedabble in a fixed surface is $k$-dicolourable. In particular, we show that for any surface, deciding whether a digraph embeddable on this surface is $2$-dicolourable is NP-complete, and that deciding whether a planar oriented graph is $2$-dicolourable is NP-complete unless all planar oriented graphs are $2$-dicolourable (which was conjectured by Neumann-Lara).
We prove that every digraph of independence number at most 2 and arc-connectivity at least 2 has an out-branching $B^+$ and an in-branching $B^-$ which are arc-disjoint (we call such branchings good pair). This is best possible in terms of the arc- connectivity as there are infinitely many strong digraphs with independence number 2 and arbitrarily high minimum in-and out-degrees that have good no pair. The result settles a conjecture by Thomassen for digraphs of independence number 2. We prove that every digraph on at most 6 vertices and arc-connectivity at least 2 has a good pair and give an example of a 2-arc-strong digraph $D$ on 10 vertices with independence number 4 that has no good pair. We also show that there are infinitely many digraphs with independence number 7 and arc-connectivity 2 that have no good pair. Finally we pose a number of open problems.
Let $D=(V,A)$ be a digraphs without isolated vertices. A vertex-degree based invariant $I(D)$ related to a real function $varphi$ of $D$ is defined as a summation over all arcs, $I(D) = frac{1}{2}sum_{uvin A}{varphi(d_u^+,d_v^-)}$, where $d_u^+$ (res p. $d_u^-$) denotes the out-degree (resp. in-degree) of a vertex $u$. In this paper, we give the extremal values and extremal digraphs of $I(D)$ over all digraphs with $n$ non-isolated vertices. Applying these results, we obtain the extremal values of some vertex-degree based topological indices of digraphs, such as the Randi{c} index, the Zagreb index, the sum-connectivity index, the $GA$ index, the $ABC$ index and the harmonic index, and the corresponding extremal digraphs.
Given a digraph $D$ with $m $ arcs, a bijection $tau: A(D)rightarrow {1, 2, ldots, m}$ is an antimagic labeling of $D$ if no two vertices in $D$ have the same vertex-sum, where the vertex-sum of a vertex $u $ in $D$ under $tau$ is the sum of labels o f all arcs entering $u$ minus the sum of labels of all arcs leaving $u$. We say $(D, tau)$ is an antimagic orientation of a graph $G$ if $D$ is an orientation of $G$ and $tau$ is an antimagic labeling of $D$. Motivated by the conjecture of Hartsfield and Ringel from 1990 on antimagic labelings of graphs, Hefetz, M{u}tze, and Schwartz in 2010 initiated the study of antimagic orientations of graphs, and conjectured that every connected graph admits an antimagic orientation. This conjecture seems hard, and few related results are known. However, it has been verified to be true for regular graphs and biregular bipartite graphs. In this paper, we prove that every connected graph $G$ on $nge9$ vertices with maximum degree at least $n-5$ admits an antimagic orientation.
Given a simple graph $G$, denote by $Delta(G)$, $delta(G)$, and $chi(G)$ the maximum degree, the minimum degree, and the chromatic index of $G$, respectively. We say $G$ is emph{$Delta$-critical} if $chi(G)=Delta(G)+1$ and $chi(H)le Delta(G)$ for eve ry proper subgraph $H$ of $G$; and $G$ is emph{overfull} if $|E(G)|>Delta lfloor |V(G)|/2 rfloor$. Since a maximum matching in $G$ can have size at most $lfloor |V(G)|/2 rfloor$, it follows that $chi(G) = Delta(G) +1$ if $G$ is overfull. Conversely, let $G$ be a $Delta$-critical graph. The well known overfull conjecture of Chetwynd and Hilton asserts that $G$ is overfull provided $Delta(G) > |V(G)|/3$. In this paper, we show that any $Delta$-critical graph $G$ is overfull if $Delta(G) - 7delta(G)/4ge(3|V(G)|-17)/4$.
