J. Makowsky and B. Zilber (2004) showed that many variations of graph colorings, called CP-colorings in the sequel, give rise to graph polynomials. This is true in particular for harmonious colorings, convex colorings, mcc_t-colorings, and…
Haviv ({\em European Journal of Combinatorics}, 2019) has recently proved that some topological lower bounds on the chromatic number of graphs are also lower bounds on their orthogonality dimension over $\mathbb{R}$. We show that this holds…
We show that the strongest form of Hopkins' chromatic splitting conjecture, as stated by Hovey, cannot hold at chromatic level n=2 at the prime p=2. More precisely, for V(0) the mod 2 Moore spectrum, we prove that the kth homotopy group of…
We investigate implications of an old conjecture in unstable homotopy theory related to the Cohen-Moore-Neisendorfer theorem and a conjecture about the $\mathbf{E}_{2}$-topological Hochschild cohomology of certain Thom spectra (denoted $A$,…
Conventional Ramsey-theoretic investigations for edge-colourings of complete graphs are framed around avoidance of certain configurations. Motivated by considerations arising in the field of Qualitative Reasoning, we explore edge colourings…
We introduce a new type of examples of bounded degree acyclic Borel graphs and study their combinatorial properties in the context of descriptive combinatorics, using a generalization of the determinacy method of Marks. The motivation for…
A well-known open problem in graph theory asks whether Stanley's chromatic symmetric function, a generalization of the chromatic polynomial of a graph, distinguishes between any two non-isomorphic trees. Previous work has proven the…
We demonstrate that the proper homotopy equivalence relation for locally finite graphs is Borel complete. Furthermore, among the infinite graphs, there is a comeager equivalence class. As corollaries, we obtain the analogous results for the…
We investigate the classical and distributed complexity of \emph{$k$-partial $c$-coloring} where $c=k$, a natural generalization of Brooks' theorem where each vertex should be colored from the palette $\{1,\ldots,c\} = \{1,\ldots,k\}$ such…
Let R be a commutative ring with unity (not necessarily finite). The ring R consider as a simple graph whose vertices are the elements of R with two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if xy=0 in R, where 0 is the zero element of R. In…
This is an exposition of facts about p-local spectra, p-complete spectra and modules over the p-complete sphere spectrum, including homological criteria for finiteness. Most things are well-known to the experts, with a couple of potential…
Given a fixed integer $n$, we prove Ramsey-type theorems for the classes of all finite ordered $n$-colorable graphs, finite $n$-colorable graphs, finite ordered $n$-chromatic graphs, and finite $n$-chromatic graphs.
Chromatic polynomials and related graph invariants are central objects in both graph theory and statistical physics. Computational difficulties, however, have so far restricted studies of such polynomials to graphs that were either very…
In this paper, we prove a transchromatic phenomenon for Hill--Hopkins--Ravenel and Lubin--Tate theories. This establishes a direct relationship between the equivariant slice spectral sequences of height-$h$ and height-$(h/2)$ theories. As…
We compare the strength of polychromatic and monochromatic Ramsey theory in several set-theoretic domains. We show that the rainbow Ramsey theorem does not follow from ZF, nor does the rainbow Ramsey theorem imply Ramsey's theorem over ZF.…
The locating chromatic number of a graph is the smallest integer $n$ such that there is a proper $n$-coloring $c$ and every vertex has a unique vector of distances to colors in $c$. We explore the necessary conditions and provide sufficient…
In the way of proving Kneser's conjecture, L\'{a}szl\'{o} Lov\'{a}sz settled out a new lower bound for the chromatic number. He showed that if neighborhood complex $\mathcal{N}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is topologically $k$-connected, then its…
We study the spectral aspects of the graph limit theory. We give a description of graphon convergence in terms of converegnce of eigenvalues and eigenspaces. Along these lines we prove a spectral version of the strong regularity lemma.…
The chromatic polynomial of a graph G counts the number of proper colorings of G. We give an affirmative answer to the conjecture of Read and Rota-Heron-Welsh that the absolute values of the coefficients of the chromatic polynomial form a…
Color confinement is a consequence of an unbroken non-Abelian gauge symmetry and the resulting asymptotic freedom inherent in quantum chromodynamics. A qualitative sketch of its proof is presented.
