Abstract
In 1985, Mader conjectured that for every acyclic digraph F there exists K = K(F) such that every digraph D with minimum out-degree at least K contains a subdivision of F. This conjecture remains widely open, even for digraphs F on five vertices. Recently, Aboulker, Cohen, Havet, Lochet, Moura and Thomassé studied special cases of Mader’s problem and made the following conjecture: for every ℓ ≥ 2 there exists K = K(ℓ) such that every digraph D with minimum out-degree at least K contains a subdivision of every orientation of a cycle of length ℓ.We prove this conjecture and answer further open questions raised by Aboulker et al.
