A vertex colouring of a graph is called asymmetric if the only automorphism which preserves it is the identity. Tucker conjectured that if every automorphism of a connected, locally finite graph moves infinitely many vertices, then there is…
In a proper edge-coloring the edges of every color form a matching. A matching is induced if the end-vertices of its edges induce a matching. A strong edge-coloring is an edge-coloring in which the edges of every color form an induced…
A graph $G$ is called a complete $k$-partite ($k\geq 2$) graph if its vertices can be partitioned into $k$ independent sets $V_{1},...,V_{k}$ such that each vertex in $V_{i}$ is adjacent to all the other vertices in $V_{j}$ for $1\leq…
We study the complexity of graph modification problems with respect to homomorphism-based colouring properties of edge-coloured graphs. A homomorphism from edge-coloured graph $G$ to edge-coloured graph $H$ is a vertex-mapping from $G$ to…
Motivated by the analogous questions in graphs, we study the complexity of coloring and stable set problems in hypergraphs with forbidden substructures and bounded edge size. Letting $\nu(G)$ denote the maximum size of a matching in $H$, we…
Gy\'arf\'as and Lehel and independently Faudree and Schelp proved that in any 2-coloring of the edges of $K_{n,n}$ there exists a monochromatic path on at least $2\lceil n/2\rceil$ vertices, and this is tight. We prove a stability version…
Let $H=(V,E)$ be a hypergraph, where $V$ is a set of vertices and $E$ is a set of non-empty subsets of $V$ called edges. If all edges of $H$ have the same cardinality $r$, then $H$ is a $r$-uniform hypergraph; if $E$ consists of all…
The concept of monochromatic connectivity was introduced by Caro and Yuster. A path in an edge-colored graph is called a \emph{monochromatic path} if all the edges on the path are colored the same. An edge-coloring of $G$ is a…
An old result of M\"uller and R\"odl states that a countable graph $G$ has a subgraph whose vertices all have infinite degree if and only if for any vertex labeling of $G$ by positive integers, an infinite increasing path can be found. They…
A directed hypergraph is a hypergraph in which the vertex set of each hyperedge is partitioned into two disjoint parts, a head and a tail. Keszegh and P\'alv\"olgyi posed the following conjecture. Let $H$ be a directed hypergraph such that…
A result of Gy\'arf\'as exactly determines the size of a largest monochromatic component in an arbitrary $r$-coloring of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph $K_n^k$ when $k\geq 2$ and $r-1\leq k\leq r$. We prove a result which says that if…
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,…
We investigate proper $(a:b)$-fractional colorings of $n$-uniform hypergraphs, which generalize traditional integer colorings of graphs. Each vertex is assigned $b$ distinct colors from a set of $a$ colors, and an edge is properly colored…
A vertex coloring of a strong digraph $D$ is a \emph{strong vertex-monochromatic connection coloring (SVMC-coloring)} if for every pair $u, v$ of vertices in $D$ there exists an $(u,v)$-path having all its internal vertices of the same…
A \emph{locally irregular graph} is a graph whose adjacent vertices have distinct degrees. We say that a graph $G$ can be decomposed into $k$ locally irregular subgraphs if its edge set may be partitioned into $k$ subsets each of which…
A ring is a graph $R$ whose vertex set can be partitioned into $k \geq 4$ nonempty sets, $X_1, \dots, X_k$, such that for all $i \in \{1,\dots,k\}$, the set $X_i$ can be ordered as $X_i = \{u_i^1, \dots, u_i^{|X_i|}\}$ so that $X_i…
We prove that if the edges of a graph G can be colored blue or red in such a way that every vertex belongs to a monochromatic k-clique of each color, then G has at least 4(k-1) vertices. This confirms a conjecture of Bucic, Lidicky, Long,…
Given an edge-coloring of a simple graph, assign to every vertex $v$ a set $S_v$ comprised of the colors used on the edges incident to $v$. The $k$-intersection chromatic index of a graph is the minimum $t$ such that the edge set can be…
A graph $H$ is {\em $p$-edge colorable} if there is a coloring $\psi: E(H) \rightarrow \{1,2,\dots,p\}$, such that for distinct $uv, vw \in E(H)$, we have $\psi(uv) \neq \psi(vw)$. The {\sc Maximum Edge-Colorable Subgraph} problem takes as…
We study the computational complexity of $c$-Colored $P_\ell$ Deletion and $c$-Colored $C_\ell$ Deletion. In these problems, one is given a $c$-edge-colored graph and wants to destroy all induced $c$-colored paths or cycles, respectively,…
