The representation is essentially the same as that given by J.P.Nagle in J. Comb. Theory (B), 1971, 10:1, 42--59. The distinction is in the definition of the weighting function via the number of flows. This new definition allows one to…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of F-manifold color algebras and study their properties which extend some results for F-manifold algebras.
An open problem of arithmetic Ramsey theory asks if given a finite $r$-colouring $c:\mathbb{N}\to\{1,...,r\}$ of the natural numbers, there exist $x,y\in \mathbb{N}$ such that $c(xy)=c(x+y)$ apart from the trivial solution $x=y=2$. More…
A graph is k-total colourable if there is an assignment of k different colours to the vertices and edges of the graph such that no two adjacent nor incident elements receive the same colour. The total chromatic number of some direct product…
It is well known that the Lorenz system has $Z_2$-symmetry. Using introducted in math.DS/0105147 topological covering-coloring a new representation for the Lorenz system is obtained. Deleting coloring leads to the factorized Lorenz system…
The colourful simplicial depth conjecture states that any point in the convex hull of each of d+1 sets, or colours, of d+1 points in general position in R^d is contained in at least d^2+1 simplices with one vertex from each set. We verify…
A measure theoretic approach of the problem that there exits a finite unit-distance graphs in the plane that are not five (or four) colorable.
We solve an elementary number theory problem on sums of fractional parts, using methods from group theory. We apply our result to deduce the finiteness of certain monodromy representations.
For all positive integers $r\geq 3$ and $n$ such that $r^2-r$ divides $n$ and an affine plane of order $r$ exists, we construct an $r$-edge colored graph with minimum degree $(1-\frac{r-2}{r^2-r})n-2$ such that the largest monochromatic…
A colouring of a graph is "nonrepetitive" if for every path of even order, the sequence of colours on the first half of the path is different from the sequence of colours on the second half. We show that planar graphs have nonrepetitive…
Coloured graphical models are Gaussian statistical models determined by an undirected coloured graph. These models can be described by linear spaces of symmetric matrices. We outline a relationship between the symmetries of the graph and…
We prove the existence of a function $f :\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ such that the vertices of every planar graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ can be 3-colored in such a way that each monochromatic component has at most $f(\Delta)$ vertices.…
Given a positive definite binary quadratic form f, let r(n) = |{(x,y): f(x,y)=n}| denote its representation function. In this paper we study linear correlations of these functions. For example, if r_1, ..., r_k are representation functions,…
This article is built upon three main ideas. First, for a class of monomial ideals, it is proven that the multiplicity of an ideal equals the number of realizations of its codimension (an intuitive concept that we define later). Next, for…
One of the toughest problems in Ramsey theory is to determine the existence of monochromatic arithmetic progressions in groups whose elements have been colored. We study the harder problem to not only determine the existence of…
Gy\'arf\'as conjectured in 2011 that every $r$-edge-colored $K_n$ contains a monochromatic component of bounded ("perhaps three") diameter on at least $n/(r-1)$ vertices. Letzter proved this conjecture with diameter four. In this note we…
We study several basic problems about colouring the $p$-random subgraph $G_p$ of an arbitrary graph $G$, focusing primarily on the chromatic number and colouring number of $G_p$. In particular, we show that there exist infinitely many…
A $p$-centered coloring of a graph $G$, where $p$ is a positive integer, is a coloring of the vertices of $G$ in such a way that every connected subgraph of $G$ either contains a vertex with a unique color or contains more than $p$…
A Nordhaus-Gaddum-type result is a (tight) lower or upper bound on the sum or product of a parameter of a graph and its complement. In this paper some variations are considered. First, recall their theorem, which gives bounds on the sum and…
We show that a functor category whose domain is a colored category is a topos.The topos structure enables us to introduce cohomology of colored categories including quasi-schemoids. If the given colored category arises from an association…
