Abstract
Let $G$ be a simple graph. A function $f$ from the set of orientations of $G$ to the set of non-negative integers is called a continuous function on orientations of $G$ if, for any two orientations $O_1$ and $O_2$ of $G$, $|f(O_1)-f(O_2)|\le 1$ whenever $O_1$ and $O_2$ differ in the orientation of exactly one edge of $G$. We show that any continuous function on orientations of a simple graph $G$ has the interpolation property as follows: If there are two orientations $O_1$ and $O_2$ of $G$ with $f(O_1)=p$ and $f(O_2)=q$, where $p
