Given a graph $G$ and a nondecreasing sequence $S=(s_1,\ldots,s_k)$ of positive integers, the mapping $c:V(G)\longrightarrow \{1,\ldots,k\}$ is called an $S$-packing coloring of $G$ if for any two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ in…
For integers r and k > 0(k>r),a conditional (k, r)-coloring of a graph G is a proper k-coloring of G such that every vertex v of G has at least min{r,d(v)} differently colored neighbors, where d(v) is the degree of v. In this note, for…
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 present a number of new results about range searching for colored (or "categorical") data: 1. For a set of $n$ colored points in three dimensions, we describe randomized data structures with $O(n\mathop{\rm polylog}n)$ space that can…
For integers $k>0$ and $0<r \leq \Delta$ (where $r \leq k$), a conditional $(k,r)$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper $k$-coloring of the vertices of $G$ such that every vertex $v$ of degree $d(v)$ in $G$ is adjacent to vertices with at…
For an integer $r>0$, a conditional $(k,r)$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper $k$-coloring of the vertices of $G$ such that every vertex $v$ of degree $d(v)$ in $G$ is adjacent to vertices with at least $min\{r, d(v)\}$ different colors.…
A set of colored graphs are compatible, if for every color $i$, the number of vertices of color $i$ is the same in every graph. A simultaneous embedding of $k$ compatibly colored graphs, each with $n$ vertices, consists of $k$ planar…
This article discusses some difficulties in the implementation of combinatorial algorithms associated with the choice of all elements with certain properties among the elements of a set with great cardinality.The problem has been resolved…
A linearly ordered (LO) $k$-colouring of an $r$-uniform hypergraph assigns an integer from $\{1, \ldots, k \}$ to every vertex so that, in every edge, the (multi)set of colours has a unique maximum. Equivalently, for $r=3$, if two vertices…
The clique chromatic number of a graph G=(V,E) is the minimum number of colors in a vertex coloring so that no maximal (with respect to containment) clique is monochromatic. We prove that the clique chromatic number of the binomial random…
For nonnegative integers $k, d_1, \ldots, d_k$, a graph is $(d_1, \ldots, d_k)$-colorable if its vertex set can be partitioned into $k$ parts so that the $i$th part induces a graph with maximum degree at most $d_i$ for all $i\in\{1, \ldots,…
In the two-dimensional orthogonal colored range counting problem, we preprocess a set, $P$, of $n$ colored points on the plane, such that given an orthogonal query rectangle, the number of distinct colors of the points contained in this…
In a family ${G_1, G_2, \ldots, G_m}$ of graphs sharing the same vertex set $V$, a cooperative coloring involves selecting one independent set $I_i$ from $G_i$ for each $i\in \{1,2,\ldots,m\}$ such that $\bigcup_{i=1}^m I_i = V$. For a…
Given an edge-coloring of a simple graph, assign to every vertex $v$ a set $S_v$ comprised of the colors used on the edges incident to $v$. The $k$-intersection chromatic index of a graph is the minimum $t$ such that the edge set can be…
We lay the combinatorial foundations for [ShSt:340] by setting up and proving the essential properties of the coding apparatus for singular cardinals. We also prove another result concerning the coding apparatus for inaccessible cardinals.
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…
Let $F$ be a (possibly improper) edge-coloring of a graph $G$; a vertex coloring of $G$ is \emph{adapted to} $F$ if no color appears at the same time on an edge and on its two endpoints. If for some integer $k$, a graph $G$ is such that…
There are many variations on partition functions for graph homomorphisms or colorings. The case considered here is a counting or hard constraint problem in which the range or color graph carries a free and vertex transitive Abelian group…
For $r,n\ge2$, an ordered $r$-uniform matching of size $n$ is an $r$-uniform hypergraph on a linearly ordered vertex set $V$, with $|V|=rn$, consisting of $n$ pairwise disjoint edges. There are $\tfrac12\binom{2r}r$ different ways two edges…
Suppose that each number $1,2,...,N$ has one of n colours assigned. We show that if there are no monochromatic solutions to the equation $x_1+x_2+x_3=y_1+y_2$, then $N=O((n!)^{1/2})$, improving upon a result of Cwalina and Schoen. Further,…
