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…

This paper discusses reformulations of the problem of coloring plane maps with four colors. The context is the edge-coloring with three colors of cubic graphs such that three distinct colors occur at each vertex. We include discussion of…

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…

We prove that any finite set of half-planes can be colored by two colors so that every point of the plane, which belongs to at least three half-planes in the set, is covered by half-planes of both colors. This settles a problem of Keszegh.

Consider edge colorings of digraphs where edges $v_1 v_2$ and $v_2 v_3$ have different colors. This coloring induces a vertex coloring by sets of edge colors, in which edge $v_1 v_2$ in the graph implies that the set color of $v_1$ contains…

Consider a graph whose vertices are colored in one of two colors, say black or white. A white vertex is called integrated if it has at least as many black neighbors as white neighbors, and similarly for a black vertex. The coloring as a…

We study the problem of counting $k$-hypergraphlets, an interesting but surprisingly ignored primitive, with the aim of understanding whether efficient algorithms exist. To this end, we consider color coding, a well-known technique for…

We study the average number $\mathcal{A}(G)$ of colors in the non-equivalent colorings of a graph $G$. We show some general properties of this graph invariant and determine its value for some classes of graphs. We then conjecture several…

We study $S(t-1,t,2t)$, which is a special class of Steiner systems. Explicit constructions for designing such systems are developed under a graph-theoretic platform where Steiner systems are represented in the form of uniform hypergraphs.…

A weighting of the edges of a hypergraph is called vertex-coloring if the weighted degrees of the vertices yield a proper coloring of the graph, i.e., every edge contains at least two vertices with different weighted degrees. In this paper…

Turing's famous 'machine' framework provides an intuitively clear conception of 'computing with real numbers'. A recursive counterexample to a theorem shows that the theorem does not hold when restricted to computable objects. These…

The optimality of the Erd\H{o}s-Rado theorem for pairs is witnessed by the colouring $\Delta_\kappa : [2^\kappa]^2 \rightarrow \kappa$ recording the least point of disagreement between two functions. This colouring has no monochromatic…

Previous work has shown that the classification of indecomposable off-shell representations of N-supersymmetry, depicted as Adinkras, may be factored into specifying the topologies available to Adinkras, and then the height-assignments for…

A \emph{Kempe chain} on colors $a$ and $b$ is a component of the subgraph induced by colors $a$ and $b$. A \emph{Kempe change} is the operation of interchanging the colors of some Kempe chain. For a list-assignment $L$ and an $L$-coloring…

In this paper, some results concerning the colorings of graph powers are presented. The notion of helical graphs is introduced. We show that such graphs are hom-universal with respect to high odd-girth graphs whose $(2t+1)$st power is…

We study the problem of color reversal in bicolored graphs under local inversions. A \emph{bicoloration} of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a mapping $\beta: V \to \{-1,1\}$. A \emph{local inversion} at a vertex $v \in V$ consists of reversing the…

We show that the edges of any graph $G$ containing two edge-disjoint spanning trees can be blue/red coloured so that the blue and red graphs are connected and the blue and red degrees at each vertex differ by at most four. This improves a…

In 2004, Karo\'nski, \L uczak and Thomason proposed $1$-$2$-$3$-conjecture: For every nice graph $G$ there is an edge weighting function $ w:E(G)\rightarrow\{1,2,3\} $ such that the induced vertex coloring is proper. After that, the total…

An edge-weighting of a graph is called vertex-coloring if the weighted degrees yield a proper vertex coloring of the graph. It is conjectured that for every graph without isolated edge, a vertex-coloring edge-weighting with the set {1,2,3}…

For a given Lie superalgebra, two ways of constructing color superalgebras are presented. One of them is based on the color superalgebraic nature of the Clifford algebras. The method is applicable to any Lie superalgebras and results in…
