Let $n\ge 1$ and $s\ge 1$ be integers. An almost $s$-stable subset $A$ of $[n]=\{1,\dots,n\}$ is a subset such that for any two distinct elements $i, j\in A$, one has $|i-j|\ge s$. For a family $\cal F$ of non-empty subsets of $[n]$ and an…
Given two graphs $G$ and $H$, the {Ramsey number} $R(G,H)$ is the smallest positive integer $N$ such that every 2-coloring of the edges of $K_{N}$ contains either a red $G$ or a blue $H$. Let $K_{N-1}\sqcup K_{1,k}$ be the graph obtained…
We introduce a notion of color-criticality in the context of chromatic-choosability. We define a graph $G$ to be strong $k$-chromatic-choosable if $\chi(G) = k$ and every $(k-1)$-assignment for which $G$ is not list-colorable has the…
In this paper, we introduce and study a novel graph parameter called the $k$-defect number, denoted $\phi_{k}(G)$, for a graph $G$ and an integer $0\leq k\leq |E(G)|$. Unlike traditional defective colorings that bound the local degree…
In 2011, Meunier conjectured that for positive integers $n,k,r,s$ with $ k\geq 2$, $r\geq 2$, and $n\geq \max (\{r,s\})k$, the chromatic number of $s$ -stable $r$-uniform Kneser hypergraphs is equal to $\left\lceil \frac{n-\max…
The $k$th power $G^k$ of a graph $G$ is the graph defined on $V(G)$ such that two vertices $u$ and $v$ are adjacent in $G^k$ if the distance between $u$ and $v$ in $G$ is at most $k$. Let $\chi(H)$ and $\chi_l(H)$ be the chromatic number…
The celebrated canonical Ramsey theorem of Erd\H{o}s and Rado implies that for a given $k$-uniform hypergraph (or $k$-graph) $H$, if $n$ is sufficiently large then any colouring of the edges of the complete $k$-graph $K^{(k)}_n$ gives rise…
The Ramsey number $r(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum $N$ such that every red-blue coloring of the edges of the complete graph on $N$ vertices contains a monochromatic copy of $G$. Determining or estimating these numbers is one of the…
Let $H=(V(H),E(H))$ be a graph. A $k$-coloring of $H$ is a mapping $\pi : V(H) \longrightarrow \{1,2,\ldots, k\}$, if each color class induces a $K_2$-free subgraph. For a graph $G$ of order at least $2$, a $G$-free $k$-coloring of $H$, is…
We determine the Ramsey number of a connected clique matching. That is, we show that if $G$ is a $2$-edge-coloured complete graph on $(r^2 - r - 1)n - r + 1$ vertices, then there is a monochromatic connected subgraph containing $n$ disjoint…
The chromatic threshold $\delta_\chi(H)$ of a graph $H$ is the infimum of $d>0$ such that the chromatic number of every $n$-vertex $H$-free graph with minimum degree at least $d n$ is bounded by a constant depending only on $H$ and $d$.…
Let $G$ be a graph, $H$ be a subgraph of $G$, and let $G- H$ be the graph obtained from $G$ by removing a copy of $H$. Let $K_{1, n}$ be the star on $n+ 1$ vertices. Let $t\geq 2$ be an integer and $H_{1}, \dots, H_{t}$ and $H$ be graphs,…
For a graph G=(V,E), a hypergraph H is called Berge-G if there is a bijection f from E(G) to E(H) such that for each e in E(G), e is a subset of f(e). The set of all Berge-G hypergraphs is denoted B(G). For integers k>1, r>1, and a graph G,…
The anti-Ramsey number, $AR(n,G)$, for a graph $G$ and an integer $n\geq|V(G)|$, is defined to be the minimal integer $r$ such that in any edge-colouring of $K_n$ by at least $r$ colours there is a multicoloured copy of $G$, namely, a copy…
Conflict-free coloring (in short, CF-coloring) of a graph $G = (V,E)$ is a coloring of $V$ such that the neighborhood of each vertex contains a vertex whose color differs from the color of any other vertex in that neighborhood. Bounds on…
For a given graph $H$, the anti-Ramsey number of $H$ is the maximum number of colors in an edge-coloring of a complete graph which does not contain a rainbow copy of $H$. In this paper, we extend the decomposition family of graphs to the…
In this paper, we address problems related to parameters concerning edge mappings of graphs. Inspired by Ramsey's Theorem, the quantity $m(G, H)$ is defined to be the minimum number $n$ such that for every $f: E(K_n) \rightarrow E(K_n)$…
An ordered graph $\mathcal{G}$ is a simple graph together with a total ordering on its vertices. The (2-color) Ramsey number of $\mathcal{G}$ is the smallest integer $N$ such that every 2-coloring of the edges of the complete ordered graph…
More than 50 years ago Hedetniemi conjectured that the chromatic number of categorical product of two graphs is equal to the minimum of their chromatic numbers. This conjecture has received a considerable attention in recent years.…
We consider the $t$-improper chromatic number of the Erd{\H o}s-R{\'e}nyi random graph $G(n,p)$. The t-improper chromatic number $\chi^t(G)$ of $G$ is the smallest number of colours needed in a colouring of the vertices in which each colour…
