We initiate the study of total-coloring extensions, and focus our attention on planar graphs, asking: ``When can a total-$k$-coloring of some subgraph $H$ of a planar graph $G$ be extended to a total-$k$-coloring of $G$?'' We prove that if…
We give an exponential improvement to the lower bound on diagonal Ramsey numbers for any fixed number of colors greater than two.
In this paper we will give the calculus, the criterion, and the existence of the arithmetic Galois covers of higher relative dimensions.
We colour every point x of a probability space X according to the colours of a finite list x_1, ...., x_k of points such that each of the x_i, as a function of x, is a measure preserving transformation. We ask two questions about a…
Given a grayscale photograph as input, this paper attacks the problem of hallucinating a plausible color version of the photograph. This problem is clearly underconstrained, so previous approaches have either relied on significant user…
This paper introduces the concept of domination in the context of colored graphs (where each color assigns a weight to the vertices of its class), termed up-color domination, where a vertex dominating another must be heavier than the other.…
We investigate a number of coloring problems restricted to bipartite graphs with bounded diameter. First, we investigate the $k$-List Coloring, List $k$-Coloring, and $k$-Precoloring Extension problems on bipartite graphs with diameter at…
A colouring of a hypergraph's vertices is polychromatic if every hyperedge contains at least one vertex of each colour; the polychromatic number is the maximum number of colours in such a colouring. Its dual, the cover-decomposition number,…
Identifying the sets of operations that can be executed simultaneously is an important problem appearing in many parallel applications. By modeling the operations and their interactions as a graph, one can identify the independent…
We consider geometric hypergraphs whose vertex set is a finite set of points (e.g., in the plane), and whose hyperedges are the intersections of this set with a family of geometric regions (e.g., axis-parallel rectangles). A typical…
We introduce two novel evolutionary formulations of the problem of coloring the nodes of a graph. The first formulation is based on the relationship that exists between a graph's chromatic number and its acyclic orientations. It views such…
Four-Color Theorem has secret in its logical proof and actual operating. In this paper we will give a proof of Four-Color Theorem based on Kuratowski's Theorem using some induction argument and give a description of the most complicated…
Although the Four Color Conjecture originated in cartography, surprisingly, there is nothing in the literature on the number of ways to color an actual geographic map with four or fewer colors. In this paper, we compute these numbers, with…
The Minimum Sum Coloring Problem is a variant of the Graph Vertex Coloring Problem, for which each color has a weight. This paper presents a new way to find a lower bound of this problem, based on a relaxation into an integer partition…
We determine the conditions for the existence or not of cycles for several families of generalized 3x + 1 mappings and develop a method to find them.
We generalize the notion of an inverse sequence of graph covers from the zero-dimensional dynamical systems to any dynamical system.
A proper labeling of a graph is an assignment of integers to some elements of a graph, which may be the vertices, the edges, or both of them, such that we obtain a proper vertex coloring via the labeling subject to some conditions. The…
We discuss tangent maps related to the multipliers of periodic points of a typical one-dimensional polynomial map.
We consider s-chromatic polynomials of simplicial complexes, higher dimensional analogues of chromatic polynomials for graphs.
One of the fundamental and most-studied algorithmic problems in distributed computing on networks is graph coloring, both in bounded-degree and in general graphs. Recently, the study of this problem has been extended in two directions.…
