This is a bibliography of signed graphs and related mathematics. I regard as fundamental the notion of balance of a circuit (sign product equals +, the sign group identity) and the vertex-edge incidence matrix (whose column for a negative edge has two +1’s or two 1’s, for a positive edge one +1 and one 1, the rest being zero). Hence I have included work on gain graphs (where the edge labels are taken from any group) and “consistency” in vertex-signed or marked graphs (where the vertices are signed), and generalizable work on two-graphs (the set of unbalanced triangles of a signed complete graph) and on even and odd polygons and paths in graphs and digraphs.
