We construct a moduli space of four colorings on planar cubic graphs. More precisely, we introduce the notion of weak Hamiltonian, a generalization of Hamiltonian cycles, and relate it to 4-colorings. Weak Hamiltonians have a form of…
Let $G = (V,E)$ be a finite simple graph. Recall that a proper coloring of $G$ is a mapping $\varphi: V\to\{1,\ldots,k\}$ such that every color class induces an independent set. Such a $\varphi$ is called a semi-matching coloring if the…
We give superexponential lower and upper bounds on the number of coloured $d$-dimensional triangulations whose underlying space is an oriented manifold, when the number of simplices goes to infinity and $d\geq 3$ is fixed. In the special…
We show that any point in the convex hull of each of (d+1) sets of (d+1) points in general position in \R^d is contained in at least (d+1)^2/2 simplices with one vertex from each set. This improves the known lower bounds for all d >= 4.
We generalize a result of Tibor Gallai as follows: for any finite set of points $\mathcal{S}$ in the plane, if the plane is colored in finitely many colors, then there exist $2^{\aleph_0}$ monochromatic subsets of the plane homothetic to…
A facial unique-maximum coloring of a plane graph is a proper coloring of the vertices using positive integers such that each face has a unique vertex that receives the maximum color in that face. Fabrici and G\"{o}ring (2016) proposed a…
An orthogonal coloring of the two-dimensional unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$, is a partition of $\mathbb{S}^2$ into parts such that no part contains a pair of orthogonal points, that is, a pair of points at spherical distance $\pi/2$ apart. It…
We prove that any continuous map of an N-dimensional simplex Delta_N with colored vertices to a d-dimensional manifold M must map r points from disjoint rainbow faces of Delta_N to the same point in M: For this we have to assume that N \geq…
Suppose that $\mathbb{F}_p$ is coloured with $r$ colours. Then there is some colour class containing at least $c_r p^2$ quadruples of the form $(x, y , x + y, xy)$.
We present two algorithms for unfolding the surface of any polyhedron, all of whose faces are triangles, to a nonoverlapping, connected planar layout. The surface is cut only along polyhedron edges. The layout is connected, but it may have…
L. Lechuga and A. Murillo showed that a non-oriented, simple, connected, finite graph $G$ is $k$-colourable if and only if a certain pure Sullivan algebra associated to $G$ and $k$ is not elliptic. In this paper, we extend this result to…
Three--dimensional colored triangulations are gluings of tetrahedra whose faces carry the colors 0, 1, 2, 3 and in which the attaching maps between tetrahedra are defined using the colors. This framework makes it possible to generalize the…
An $\ell$-facial edge-coloring of a plane graph is a coloring of its edges such that any two edges at distance at most $\ell$ on a boundary walk of any face receive distinct colors. It is the edge-coloring variant of the $\ell$-facial…
The (weak) chromatic number of a hypergraph $H$, denoted by $\chi(H)$, is the smallest number of colors required to color the vertices of $H$ so that no hyperedge of $H$ is monochromatic. For every $2\le k\le d+1$, denote by $\chi_L(k,d)$…
A well-known result by Graham in Euclidean Ramsey Theory states that, for every positive real number $A$, every coloring of the plane with finite number of colors contains a monochromatic triangle of area $A$. We consider canonical versions…
In this note, we prove that any 2-coloring of the plane contains 4 points of the same color forming a rhombus with unit sides and non-unit diagonals, answering a question of Axenovich, Liu, and the second author.
A vertex colouring of some graph is called perfect if each vertex of colour $i$ has the same number $a_{ij}$ of neighbours of colour $j$. Here we determine all perfect colourings of the edge graphs of the hypercube in dimensions 4 and 5 by…
A conjecture of Erd\H{o}s, Graham, Montgomery, Rothschild, Spencer and Straus states that, with the exception of equilateral triangles, any two-coloring of the plane will have a monochromatic congruent copy of every three-point…
We settle a problem of Havel by showing that there exists an absolute constant d such that if G is a planar graph in which every two distinct triangles are at distance at least d, then G is 3-colorable. In fact, we prove a more general…
We give a full, correct proof of the following result, earlier claimed by Erd\H{o}s and Komj\'ath. If the Continuum Hypothesis holds then there is a coloring of the plane with countably many colors, with no monocolored right triangle.
