A (minimal) transversal of a partition is a set which contains exactly one element from each member of the partition and nothing else. A coloring of a graph is a partition of its vertex set into anticliques, that is, sets of pairwise…

A graph is called uniquely distinguishing colorable if there is only one partition of vertices of the graph that forms distinguishing coloring with the smallest possible colors. In this paper, we study the unique colorability of the…

We discuss the minimal number of vertices in a graph with a large chromatic number such that each ball of a fixed radius in it has a small chromatic number. It is shown that for every graph $G$ on $\sim((n+rc)/(c+rc))^{r+1}$ vertices such…

The locating-chromatic number of a graph $G$ is the smallest integer $n$, such that $G$ has a proper $n$-coloring $c$ and all vertices have different vectors of distances to the colors generated by $c$. We study the asymptotic value of the…

A partition $(V_1,\ldots,V_k)$ of the vertex set of a graph $G$ with a (not necessarily proper) colouring $c$ is colourful if no two vertices in any $V_i$ have the same colour and every set $V_i$ induces a connected graph. The COLOURFUL…

A graceful $l$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper vertex coloring with $l$ colors which induces a proper edge coloring with at most $l-1$ colors, where the color for an edge $ab$ is the absolute difference between the colors assigned to…

In this article, we study radio \(k\)-colorings of simple connected graphs \(G\) with diameter \(d\), where a radio \(k\)-coloring \(g\) assigns non-negative integers to \(V(G)\) (vertices of \(G\)) such that \(|g(u) - g(v)| \geq 1 + k -…
