In this article we consider certain well-known polynomials associated with graphs including the independence polynomial and the chromatic polynomial. These polynomials count certain objects in graphs: independent sets in the case of the…
A hamiltonian coloring c of a graph G of order p is an assignment of colors to the vertices of G such that $D(u,v)+|c(u)-c(v)|\geq p-1$ for every two distinct vertices u and v of G, where D(u,v) denoted the detour distance between u and v.…
We discuss three distinct topics of independent interest; one in enumerative combinatorics, one in symmetric function theory, and one in algebraic geometry. The topic in enumerative combinatorics concerns a q-analog of a generalization of…
A clique coloring of a graph is an assignment of colors to its vertices such that no maximal clique is monochromatic. We initiate the study of structural parameterizations of the Clique Coloring problem which asks whether a given graph has…
We develop further the new versions of quantum chromatic numbers of graphs introduced by the first and fourth authors. We prove that the problem of computation of the commuting quantum chromatic number of a graph is solvable by an SDP…
In this paper, we first study a new extremal problem recently posed by Conlon and Tyomkyn~(arXiv: 2002.00921). Given a graph $H$ and an integer $k\geqslant 2$, let $f_{k}(n,H)$ be the smallest number of colors $c$ such that there exists a…
A generalized theory of spatial coherence for superposition of two speckle patterns with polarization diversity is presented. The presented theory deals with superposition in different scenarios i.e. superposition of two fully correlated,…
This paper proves limit theorems for the number of monochromatic edges in uniform random colorings of general random graphs. These can be seen as generalizations of the birthday problem (what is the chance that there are two friends with…
We study the kernel complexity of constraint satisfaction problems over a finite domain, parameterized by the number of variables, whose constraint language consists of two relations: the non-equality relation and an additional…
This paper deals with the so-called Stanley conjecture, which asks whether they are non-isomorphic trees with the same symmetric function generalization of the chromatic polynomial. By establishing a correspondence between caterpillars…
In this article we investigate the question of chromatic purity of L-theory. To do so, we utilize the theory of additive GW and L-theory in the language of Poincar\'e categories as laid out in the series of papers by Calm\`es et al. We…
We work with simple graphs in ZF (Zermelo--Fraenkel set theory without the Axiom of Choice (AC)) and assume that the sets of colors can be either well-orderable or non-well-orderable to prove that the following statements are equivalent to…
It is argued that a dual symmetry is needed to naturally explain experimental limits on color confinement. Since color is an exact symmetry the only possibility is that this symmetry be a dual symmetry, related to non trivial spatial…
In this paper, we study vertex colorings of hypergraphs in which all color class sizes differ by at most one (balanced colorings) and each hyperedge contains at least two vertices of the same color (rainbow-free colorings). For any…
Cranston and Kim conjecture that if $G$ is a connected graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ and $G$ is not a Moore Graph, then $\chi_l(G^2) \le \Delta^2-1$; here $\chi_l$ is the list chromatic number. We prove their conjecture; in fact, this…
We prove analogs of Brooks' Theorem for the list-distinguishing chromatic number of different classes of simple finite connected graphs. Moreover, we determine two upper bounds for the list-distinguishing chromatic number of a graph G in…
The relative chromatic number $c\_0(S)$ of a compact surface $S$ with boundary is defined as the supremum of the chromatic numbers of graphs embedded in $S$ with all vertices on $\partial S$. This topological invariant was introduced for…
Suppose that a hypergraph ${\mathcal H}$ and an arbitrary nonempty (finite or infinite) set of available colors are given. Each color $x$ is associated with a frequency $\tau (x)$, where the set of all such frequencies is bounded. We define…
The principle of horizon complementarity is an attempt to extend ideas about black hole complementarity to all horizons, including cosmological ones. The idea is that the degrees of freedom necessary to describe the interior of the cosmic…
A central limit theorem for arrays of symmetric row-wise exchangeable random variables is presented. The result is valid for finite and infinite extendable and non-extendable sequences. Unlike most reported versions of the central limit…
