Cohen–Havet–López–Neumann's oriented-cycle subdivision conjecture
Let be an oriented cycle, and let a subdivision of be obtained by replacing each arc of by a directed path. A digraph is strong if every ordered pair of vertices is joined by a directed path. Cohen–Havet–López–Neumann's conjecture. For every oriented cycle , there exists a constant such that every strong digraph with
contains a subdivision of . This extends Bondy's theorem from directed cycles to all oriented cycles. It is known for cycles with two blocks and for the antidirected cycle of length , but remains open in general.
