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…
In the Properly Colored Spanning Tree problem, we are given an edge-colored undirected graph and the goal is to find a properly colored spanning tree, i.e., a spanning tree in which any two adjacent edges have distinct colors. The problem…
We consider vertex coloring of an acyclic digraph $\Gdag$ in such a way that two vertices which have a common ancestor in $\Gdag$ receive distinct colors. Such colorings arise in a natural way when bounding space for various genetic data…
Suppose that $nk$ points in general position in the plane are colored red and blue, with at least $n$ points of each color. We show that then there exist $n$ pairwise disjoint convex sets, each of them containing $k$ of the points, and each…
A proper coloring $c$ of a simple graph $G$ is harmonious if, for every pair of distinct edges $uv,xy\in E(G)$, we have that $\{c(u),c(v)\}\neq \{c(x),c(y)\}$. The harmonious chromatic number of $G$, denoted by $h(G)$, is the least positive…
Let $H$ be a triple system with maximum degree $d>1$ and let $r>10^7\sqrt{d}\log^{2}d$. Then $H$ has a proper vertex coloring with $r$ colors such that any two color classes differ in size by at most one. The bound on $r$ is sharp in order…
Let n>0 be a number. Let Gn be the graph on n-dimensional Euclidean space connecting points of rational distance. It is consistent with the choiceless theory ZF+DC that Gn has countable chromatic number yet Gn+1 does not.
We investigate the possibility of proving upper bounds on Hadwiger's number of a graph with partial information, mirroring several known upper bounds for the chromatic number. For each such bound we determine whether the corresponding bound…
We generalize a framework of list colouring results to correspondence colouring. Correspondence colouring is a generalization of list colouring wherein we localize the meaning of the colours available to each vertex. As pointed out by…
In this paper we consider a colouring version of the general position problem. The \emph{$\gp $-chromatic number} is the smallest number of colours needed to colour the vertices of the graph such that each colour class has the…
We present a method to assign, for any radius $r$ greater than about 12.44, one of seven colors to each point in $\mathbb{R}^3$ lying at distance $r$ from the origin, such that no two points at unit distance from each other are assigned the…
We classify the trees on $n$ vertices with the maximum and the minimum number of certain generalized colorings, including conflict-free, odd, non-monochromatic, star, and star rainbow vertex colorings. We also extend a result of Cutler and…
The investigation of colour symmetries for periodic and aperiodic systems consists of two steps. The first concerns the computation of the possible numbers of colours and is mainly combinatorial in nature. The second is algebraic and…
We study three classical graph problems - Hamiltonian path, minimum spanning tree, and minimum perfect matching on geometric graphs induced by bichromatic (red and blue) points. These problems have been widely studied for points in the…
For $d > 0$, define $G(\mathbb{Q}^3, d)$ to be the graph whose set of vertices is the rational space $\mathbb{Q}^3$, where two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are a Euclidean distance $d$ apart. Let $\chi(\mathbb{Q}^3, d)$ be the…
This short note is devoted to establishing the almost sure central limit theorem for the parabolic/hyperbolic Anderson models driven by colored-in-time Gaussian noises, completing recent results on quantitative central limit theorems for…
In this paper we consider a variation of a recoloring problem, called the Color-Fixing. Let us have some non-proper $r$-coloring $\varphi$ of a graph $G$. We investigate the problem of finding a proper $r$-coloring of $G$, which is "the…
For all non-degenerate triangles T, we determine the minimum number of colors needed to color the plane such that no max-norm isometric copy of T is monochromatic.
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.…
In some recent papers the classical `splitting necklace theorem' is linked in an interesting way with a geometric `pattern avoidance problem'. We explore the topological constraints on the existence of a (relaxed) measurable coloring of R^d…
