The harmonious chromatic number of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of colors that can be assigned to the vertices of $G$ in a proper way such that any two distinct edges have different color pairs. This paper gives various results on…
Connected components of real algebraic sets are semi-algebraic, i.e. they are described by a boolean formula whose atoms are polynomial constraints with real coefficients. Computing such descriptions finds topical applications in optical…
The Unfriendly Partition Conjecture posits that every countable graph admits a 2-colouring in which for each vertex there are at least as many bichromatic edges containing that vertex as monochromatic ones. This is not known in general, but…
A split graph is a graph whose vertex set can be partitioned into a clique and an independent set. A split comparability graph is a split graph which is transitively orientable. In this work, we characterize split comparability graphs in…
We prove that the list chromatic number of graphs satisfies singular compactness at strong limit singular cardinals.
We prove that up to two exceptions, every connected subcubic triangle-free graph has fractional chromatic number at most 11/4. This is tight unless further exceptional graphs are excluded, and improves the known bound on the fractional…
We show that, given an infinite cardinal $\mu$, a graph has colouring number at most $\mu$ if and only if it contains neither of two types of subgraph. We also show that every graph with infinite colouring number has a well-ordering of its…
In this work, we try to enunciate the Total chromatic number of some Cayley graphs like the Cayley graph on Symmetric group, Alternating group, Dihedral group with respect to some generating sets and some other regular graphs.
We define several new types of quantum chromatic numbers of a graph and characterise them in terms of operator system tensor products. We establish inequalities between these chromatic numbers and other parameters of graphs studied in the…
A graph is called to be uniquely list colorable, if it admits a list assignment which induces a unique list coloring. We study uniquely list colorable graphs with a restriction on the number of colors used. In this way we generalize a…
In this paper, we generalize the concept of complete coloring and achromatic number to 2-edge-colored graphs and signed graphs. We give some useful relationships between different possible definitions of such achromatic numbers and prove…
We introduce a new graph invariant that measures fractional covering of a graph by cuts. Besides being interesting in its own right, it is useful for study of homomorphisms and tension-continuous mappings. We study the relations with…
The chromatic polynomial $\pi_{G}(k)$ of a graph $G$ can be viewed as counting the number of vertices in a family of coloring graphs $\mathcal C_k(G)$ associated with (proper) $k$-colorings of $G$ as a function of the number of colors $k$.…
We consider s-chromatic polynomials of simplicial complexes, higher dimensional analogues of chromatic polynomials for graphs.
Let G be a graph with n vertices and suppose that for each vertex v in G, there exists a list of k colors L(v), such that there is a unique proper coloring for G from this collection of lists, then G is called a uniquely k-list colorable…
If we fix a spanning subgraph $H$ of a graph $G$, we can define a chromatic number of $H$ with respect to $G$ and we show that it coincides with the chromatic number of a double covering of $G$ with co-support $H$. We also find a few…
We use a well known concept of proper vertex colouring of a graph to introduce the construction of a chromatic completion graph and its related parameter, the chromatic completion number of a graph. We then give the chromatic completion…
Schrijver graphs are vertex-color-critical subgraphs of Kneser graphs having the same chromatic number. They also share the value of their fractional chromatic number but Schrijver graphs are not critical for that. Here we present an…
The fractional and circular chromatic numbers are the two most studied non-integral refinements of the chromatic number of a graph. Starting from the definition of a coloring base of a graph, which originated in work related to ergodic…
For a flexible labeling of a graph, it is possible to construct infinitely many non-equivalent realizations keeping the distances of connected points constant. We give a combinatorial characterization of graphs that have flexible labelings.…
