For the definitions, see [1]. We say that the points of an (unoriented) linear graph are n-colored if they are partitioned into n sets (some of which may be empty) so that, for each edge of the graph, the end-points of this edge are in different sets. In an oriented graph, consider a cycle (simple closed curve). I shall use the term flow-ratio of the cycle to mean the ratio mfn, where m and n are the numbers of edges of the cycle directed one way and the other around the cycle and m;?; n.(The flowratio may be+ oo.)
