The first step in investigating colour symmetries for periodic and aperiodic systems is the determination of all colouring schemes that are compatible with the symmetry group of the underlying structure, or with a subgroup of it. For an…
Perfect colourings of the rings of cyclotomic integers with class number one are studied. It is shown that all colourings induced by ideals (q) are chirally perfect, and vice versa. A necessary and sufficient condition for a colouring to be…
A submodule of a $\mathbb{Z}$-module determines a coloring of the module where each coset of the submodule is associated to a unique color. Given a submodule coloring of a $\mathbb{Z}$-module, the group formed by the symmetries of the…
A first step in investigating colour symmetries of periodic and nonperiodic patterns is determining the number of colours which allow perfect colourings of the pattern under consideration. A perfect colouring is one where each symmetry of…
The investigation of colour symmetries for periodic and aperiodic systems consists of two steps. The first concerns the computation of the possible numbers of colours and is mainly combinatorial in nature. The second is algebraic and…
In this paper, we study the homology of the coloring complex and the cyclic coloring complex of a complete $k$-uniform hypergraph. We show that the coloring complex of a complete $k$-uniform hypergraph is shellable, and we determine the…
We introduce a parametrization of formal deformations of Verma modules of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. A point in the moduli space is called a colouring. We prove that for each colouring $\psi$ satisfying a regularity condition, there is a formal…
Following Mansour, let $S_n^{(r)}$ be the set of all coloured permutations on the symbols $1,2,...,n$ with colours $1,2,...,r$, which is the analogous of the symmetric group when r=1, and the hyperoctahedral group when r=2. Let…
Let N be a regular branched cover of a homology 3-sphere M with deck group G isomorphic to Z_2^d and branch set a trivalent graph Gamma; such a cover is determined by a coloring of the edges of Gamma with elements of G. For each index-2…
We study the chromatic quasisymmetric class function of a linearized combinatorial Hopf monoid. Given a linearized combinatorial Hopf monoid $H$, and an $H$-structure $h$ on a set $N$, there are proper colorings of $h$, generalizing graph…
If $S$ is a subset of an abelian group $G$, the polychromatic number of $S$ in $G$ is the largest integer $k$ so that there is a $k-$coloring of the elements of $G$ such that every translate of $S$ in $G$ gets all $k$ colors. We determine…
We compute the cohomology groups of the spaces of colorings of cycles, i.e., of the prodsimplicial complexes Hom(C_m,K_n). We perform the computation first with Z_2, and then with integer coefficients. The main technical tool is to use…
Given a class $\mathcal{H}$ of $m$ hypergraphs ${H}_1, {H}_2, \ldots, {H}_m$ with the same vertex set $V$, a cooperative coloring of them is a partition $\{I_1, I_2, \ldots, I_m\}$ of $V$ in such a way that each $I_i$ is an independent set…
The Morava stabilizer groups play a dominating role in chromatic stable ho-motopy theory. In fact, for suitable spectra X, for example all finite spectra, thechromatic homotopy type of X at chromatic level n \textgreater{} 0 and a given…
We extend Bollobas' classical result on the chromatic number of a binomial random graph to the exchangeable random graph model $\mathcal{G}(n,W)$ defined by a graphon $W:[0,1]^2 \rightarrow [0,1]$, which is a symmetric measurable function.…
Steingrimsson's coloring complex and Jonsson's unipolar complex are interpreted in terms of hyperplane arrangements. This viewpoint leads to short proofs that all coloring complexes and a large class of unipolar complexes have convex ear…
In this paper we give an explicit and pure combinatorial description of the $m$-coloured quivers that appears in the $m$-coloured mutation class of a quiver of type $\mathbb{A}_n$. The $m$-coloured mutation defined by Buan and Thomas in…
In this paper we introduce mixed coloured permutation, permutations with certain coloured cycles, and study the enumerative properties of these combinatorial objects. We derive the generating function, closed forms, recursions and…
List colouring is an NP-complete decision problem even if the total number of colours is three. It is hard even on planar bipartite graphs. We give a polynomial-time algorithm for solving list colouring of permutation graphs with a bounded…
For any link and for any modulus $m$ we introduce an equivalence relation on the set of non-trivial m-colorings of the link (an m-coloring has values in Z/mZ). Given a diagram of the link, the equivalence class of a non-trivial m-coloring…
