We study the Cooperative Guarding problem for polygons with holes in a mobile multi-agents setting. Given a set of agents, initially deployed at a point in a polygon with $n$ vertices and $h$ holes, we require the agents to collaboratively…
The proper chromatic number $\Vec{\chi}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that there exists an orientation of the edges of $G$ with all vertex-outdegrees at most $k$ and such that for any adjacent vertices, the outdegrees are…
A packing $k$-coloring is a natural variation on the standard notion of graph $k$-coloring, where vertices are assigned numbers from $\{1, \ldots, k\}$, and any two vertices assigned a common color $c \in \{1, \ldots, k\}$ need to be at a…
We determine (partly by computer search) the chromatic index (edge-chromatic number) of many strongly regular graphs (SRGs), including the SRGs of degree $k \leq 18$ and their complements, the Latin square graphs and their complements, and…
An odd coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper vertex coloring $\varphi$ with the property that for each non-isolated vertex $v\in V(G)$, there exists a color $c$ such that the cardinality of $\varphi^{-1}(c)\cap N(v)$ is odd. The concept of…
A proper vertex-coloring of a graph is $r$-dynamic if the neighbors of each vertex $v$ receive at least $\min(r, \mathrm{deg}(v))$ different colors. In this note, we prove that if $G$ has a strong $2$-coloring number at most $k$, then $G$…
A strong edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is a coloring of the edges such that every color class induces a matching in $G$. The strong chromatic index of a graph is the minimum number of colors needed in a strong edge-coloring of the graph. In…
Guarding a polygon with few guards is an old and well-studied problem in computational geometry. Here we consider the following variant: We assume that the polygon is orthogonal and thin in some sense, and we consider a point $p$ to guard a…
A strong edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is an edge-coloring such that no two edges of distance at most two receive the same color. The strong chromatic index $\chi'_s(G)$ is the minimum number of colors in a strong edge-coloring of $G$. P.…
Two colourings of a graph are orthogonal if they have the property that when two vertices are coloured with the same colour in one colouring, then those vertices receive distinct colours in the other colouring. In this paper, orthogonal…
Weak and strong coloring numbers are generalizations of the degeneracy of a graph, where for each natural number $k$, we seek a vertex ordering such every vertex can (weakly respectively strongly) reach in $k$ steps only few vertices with…
Graph coloring is one of the most famous computational problems with applications in a wide range of areas such as planning and scheduling, resource allocation, and pattern matching. So far coloring problems are mostly studied on static…
In the present paper, we have found new upper bounds for chromatic numbers for integer lattices and some rational spaces and other lattices. In particular, we have proved that for any concrete critical distance $d$ the chromatic number of…
Curve pseudo-visibility graphs generalize polygon and pseudo-polygon visibility graphs and form a hereditary class of graphs. We prove that every curve pseudo-visibility graph with clique number $\omega$ has chromatic number at most $3\cdot…
The eternal graph colouring problem, recently introduced by Klostermeyer and Mendoza, is a version of the graph colouring game, where two players take turns properly colouring a graph. In this note, we study the eternal game chromatic…
We are interested in the problem of guarding simple orthogonal polygons with the minimum number of $ r $-guards. The interior point $ p $ belongs an orthogonal polygon $ P $ is visible from $ r $-guard $ g $, if the minimum area rectangle…
The acyclic chromatic index (or acyclic edge-chromatic number) of a graph is the least number of colors needed to properly color its edges so that none of its cycles has only two colors. We show that for a graph of max degree $\Delta$, the…
Let $P$ be an orthogonal polygon. Consider a sliding camera that travels back and forth along an orthogonal line segment $s\in P$ as its \emph{trajectory}. The camera can see a point $p\in P$ if there exists a point $q\in s$ such that $pq$…
We study graphs whose chromatic number is close to the order of the graph (the number of vertices). Both when the chromatic number is a constant multiple of the order and when the difference of the chromatic number and the order is a small…
In the two-dimensional orthogonal colored range counting problem, we preprocess a set, $P$, of $n$ colored points on the plane, such that given an orthogonal query rectangle, the number of distinct colors of the points contained in this…
