The famous Wegner's Planar Graph Conjecture asserts tight upper bounds on the chromatic number of the square $G^2$ of a planar graph $G$, depending on the maximum degree $\Delta(G)$ of $G$. The only case that the conjecture is resolved is…
The multi-fold chromatic number of the plane $\chi_m$ is the smallest number of colors $k$, sufficient to color each point of the Euclidean plane in exactly $m$ colors, so that for any pair of points at a unit distance from each other, two…
We improve the best lower bounds on the chromatic number of Euclidean space in small dimensions. The new results depend on extensive computations in Sage.
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…
The lower bound for the chromatic number of the Euclidean space of dimension 8 is increased to 25.
In this paper, anti-van der Waerden numbers on Cartesian products of graphs are investigated and a conjecture made by Schulte, et al (see arXiv:1802.01509) is answered. In particular, the anti-van der Waerden number of the Cartesian product…
The lower bound for the classical Ramsey number R(4, 8) is improved from 56 to 58. The author has found a new edge coloring of K_{57} that has no complete graphs of order 4 in the first color, and no complete graphs of order 8 in the second…
We provide a simplified proof of the following special case of Wegner's conjecture: every planar graph of maximum degree at most three admits a distance-2 coloring with at most eight colors. Our main contribution is significant…
We establish new lower bounds for $28$ classical two and three color Ramsey numbers, and describe the heuristic search procedures we used. Several of the new three color bounds are derived from the two color constructions; specifically, we…
An adjacent vertex distinguishing coloring of a graph G is a proper edge coloring of G such that any pair of adjacent vertices are incident with distinct sets of colors. The minimum number of colors needed for an adjacent vertex…
The \textit{$k$-weak-dynamic number} of a graph $G$ is the smallest number of colors we need to color the vertices of $G$ in such a way that each vertex $v$ of degree $d(v)$ sees at least $\rm{min}\{k,d(v)\}$ colors on its neighborhood. We…
We construct a non - improved exponential bounds for distribution of normed sums of i.,i.d. random variables with random numbers of summand.
We consider circular version of the famous Nelson-Hadwiger problem. It is know that 4 colors are necessary and 7 colors suffice to color the euclidean plane in such a way that points at distance one get different colors. In $r$-circular…
The Minimum Sum Coloring Problem is a variant of the Graph Vertex Coloring Problem, for which each color has a weight. This paper presents a new way to find a lower bound of this problem, based on a relaxation into an integer partition…
The lower bound W(K_{2n})>=3n-2 is proved for the greatest possible number of colors in an interval edge coloring of the complete graph K_{2n}.
We prove that triangulations with maximum degree at most 5 satisfy the List-Edge-Coloring Conjecture.
Given a graph $G$, an exact $r$-coloring of $G$ is a surjective function $c:V(G) \to [1,\dots,r]$. An arithmetic progression in $G$ of length $j$ with common difference $d$ is a set of vertices $\{v_1,\dots, v_j\}$ such that…
We prove upper bounds on the number of resonances and eigenvalues of Schr\"odinger operators $-\Delta+V$ with complex-valued potentials, where $d\geq 3$ is odd. The novel feature of our upper bounds is that they are \emph{effective}, in the…
Let $r$ be a sufficiently large positive integer, and let $N \ge \exp\exp(r^{50})$. Then any $r$-colouring of $[N]$ contains a monochromatic copy of $\{x+y,xy\}$ with $x > y > 2$.
We establish closed-form expansions for the number of colorings of a path or cycle on n vertices with colors from 1,...,x such that adjacent vertices are colored differently or with colors from y+1,...x.
